I never claimed to be an expert on herbal NBE, I don't know much about it. All I do know is my own experience with herbal NBE, which with Zoft gum was good, but with the individual herbal routine I was on... was a horrible experience. I had many side effects such as weight gain, acne, cellulite (which I never had before), mood swings, decrease in sex drive, hair falling out, etc. So from my own experience with taking individual herbs, it wasn't good, and I was I believe 21 or so at the time. As far as an expert on herbs and who would probably be able to provide proof to herbs being bad for those under 18/21 would probably be Wahaika. He would know more on that than I would.
Now as far as birth control pills... I was put on them as soon as I started my period around age 13, why? Because number 1 I was having irregular periods, 2 I had severe acne, 3 my mom was worried I'd get pregnant or something, even though I was not consensually sexually active until much later. I can say birth control pills did NOT give me big breasts. I was flat chested until about 15/16 then I grew to a humble 32B until my pregnancy at 16/17 when I got up to a 34C, after pregnancy and breastfeeding I went down to a empty, saggy, 32AA. Now I don't want to discourage anyone from breastfeeding, I was just unlucky and would have probably ended up the same way had I not breastfed.
Now, I have noticed with massive gains with herbs it seems to be with PM, am I right? I have never tried PM! So I wouldn't know about it at all. But it does seem that herb in particular is best for massive gains if someone wants them. But as far as I know, don't you have to continue to take it to keep what you gain? Just curious.
And yes it did take time for me to gain 4 inches, a normal puberty span is about 7 years, so honestly I expected it. When I first found the NBE boards everyone was on individual herbal routines, and it took them years to get massive gains as well, the ones that were lucky enough anyway. So I didn't expect to grow as much as I did any sooner than I had. But yea... technically about the NB thing, it is very good. But I was using it for months before I started BO. I was on BO for 6 months, and that's when I grew the 2 inches. I also got my first 2 inches within a 6 month period. So actually if you want to be technical it took a course of 1 yr once finding what worked for me. so 4 inches/4 cup sizes within 1 yr I think is a VERY reasonable time frame. But that's my opinion.
Now as far as BO being costly/a pain to take on. In my opinion my individual herbal routine was a worse hurdle. I took Ultra Breast which was very affordable compared to Bountiful Breast. I also didn't take anything extra besides kelp for NBE while taking BO. The other supplements I took/still take were NOT for NBE. They were for skin/hair/nails and general health. Kelp is very affordable, I believe you can get a bottle of it from swanson vitamins for like $5 maybe more maybe less, can't remember, and you get a TON of pills in the bottle and only have to take one per day. As far as diet adjustment, I already eat a high protein diet, so wasn't hard for me, the very slight adjustments I made was VERY easy. I listed out a few times what my diet was for a day and the amounts of protein per meal to demonstrate how easy it really is and how most people are already getting alot of protein and don't even know it. Once you map out your normal diet, you realize it. So, with BO, I only technically had to take 4 pills per day, and I paid attention to my diet, though didn't really have to change anything, hmmm...
But with individual herbs... lets break this down... I was taking upwards of 20 pills per day, I had to cut out all caffeine. And within 2 months got horrible side effects, and no growth. Now I know others do well with them, and that's great, I'm glad they do. But in my experience, I just won't go back to those individual herbs again. It was way too many pills per day, the smell of them made me gag, and yea, just seems my body didn't react well to them. Now PM I haven't tried so maybe in the future if I ever want to try something besides BO and NB, I would probably give PM a shot to see how it goes. Oh and by the way, the whole cost thing, with the 20 something pills per day of the individual herbal routine, I was spending quite a bit on pills, just saying. And then spent more money to get my hair back, face cleared, cellulite gone, etc. etc. I don't know just in my opinion BO was easier for me to do.
