Progesterone opposes estrogen. This is a very bad idea during the follicular phase of the cycle as it will affect ovulation which will start a chain reaction that will mess up the cycle as well as other unfathomable side effects that I have seen women suffer with over the years.

Progesterone cream is best used to address a problem, not to use for NBE.

However, if you just have to use it, remember three things:

1. Use it only on days 18-23 of the menstrual cycle and only as directed on the label.

2. Growth from progesterone is usually temporary.

3. If you don't need it, i.e. if your body is normally producing what it should, you could do damage that could result in a lifetime of misery.

Sorry, I have to butt-in here. First off to the original poster, did you have tests done to see if you really needed progesterone/ are progesterone deficient? If you really need it, it will obviously take more than a month for it to "stick." I had to do it for at least 3 months even though I noticed immediate "growth" in the first. Your body has to adjust.
You will know when PC is no longer effective as you will have no sensitivity to the follicular to luteal changes. When this happens, my guess is that your receptors are overloaded with PC and need a change.
From there, I would take the next step and stop the PC. After a month of not having anything in your system, then add your opposing herb and cycle that.

And to Wahaika,
I have to disagree with your comment on PC being a bad idea for NBE amongst a couple of others you've made.
NBE is more than just growing breasts, its about balancing out your endocrine system. How else would we grow?

I have tried PC only during Luteal phase for quite a few months with no improvement in size.

It wasn't until I experimented and used PC (topically and other areas) in the second week of Follicular phase into luteal that I have experienced an actual growth spurt and I have kept it all months and months later. It was the only thing that has worked for me and I have been at this for 4 years.

Growth from progesterone is not "only temporary" unless you have done the protocol for such a short period of time. The same can be said for estrogen like substances in NBE protocols.
We all know that in order for our growth to be permanent, 2 things:
we have to stick with our program for a long time.
Eating right is probably the most important thing as our bodies have to consistently produce such hormones levels. The hormone like substances are in the food.How else would our endocrine glands/ovaries produce these levels?

Progesterone may oppose estrogen but you can't have growth without healthy levels of it.
It's all about what your body needs and consistent balance between estrogen,progesterone,testosterone.

Although, your post only makes sense to those who don't need progesterone, its not common amongst most of us ladies here in the forums.
