I like the sound of less breast pain tenderness! My breasts get sooo tender and achy when I'm about to have my period.
Maybe the spearmint will stop you getting acne this time? They androgens have a lot to do with it.
My thoughts exactly! That's why I was considering re-introducing it.
Also, as to your earlier post, Scarlett has distinctive boobies! I think a lot of us would recognize them. They're so full and lovely.
So squishable hehe

Do yours get bigger when they are achy? Mine do! That's why I don't mind it ha ha.
When you said you had growth on the old programme were you also taking EPO?
I wonder what the cause is of acne when you take herbs?
Yes, mine blow up when they get achy! They say your PMS symptoms are a sign of what pregnancy is going to be like for you. I'll be slightly emotional with big, painful boobs!
Yes, I was taking EPO, eating healthfully (high protein, low sugar), making sure to regularly drink soy milk, and massaging daily.
I'd like to know as well! Honestly, just about anything causes acne for me.
Hmmm butttt u had growth... how much epo did you take? Its been said high doses of epo resulted in larger breasts. Re soy though being of asian origin right? They however are a small breasted nation, I read cup size wise the average is smallee thsn western nations so I would think soy wouldnt help right?
Il have a nosy for you later re triggers for adult acne if I can find anything

I took 1,000 mg 3 times a day. I was mainly taking it for my hair and skin, actually. I think soy does help certain people, depending on their hormones.
Okay! Looking forward to whatever you find.
If you don't find anything, don't worry. I'm pretty sure mine's genetic (my dad has always had awful skin, and I've had acne since I was 5!).

I'm sure it did help. I'm considering taking it again, yes, which is why I asked about what it does exactly. I think now that I'm taking spearmint, chin acne might not be a problem. I'll have to think about it and consider when I could take it, as I take flaxseeds, flaxseed oil, and fish oil and you're not supposed to mix omega 3's with omega 6's.
Work your way up slowly, and it works better, supposedly! So go up to 2 times a day, then 3.

You can take both, they're just fats. We get enough omega 6 in our typical western diet as it is, so that's why people might say don't take more if you're trying to balance it with omega 3. But if you're going to take more for other reasons,you may as well cancel it out with omega 3 :L

Also you can buy flaxomega or other omegas that are a ratio of 3 6 and 9. But yes wizzy is right we shouldnt take too much omega 6 without balancing it out with 3's

I should have clarified! What I meant is you're not supposed to take them at the same time, like in the same mouthful, because then they cancel each other out and then there's no point. So since I'm taking omega 3's at each of my meals, I don't have space to take EPO. Otherwise I'd have to fit in like three other meals. I'd get bigger boobs, alright, because I'd get fat! So I'd have to get creative about when I'd take them. That's why I need to think about it.

I love that statement lol. I'm the same I want to take all the EPO's but theres never enough meals or time in the day to pill pop them lol.
I am however confused re taking them at the same time now :s
I buy a product called flaxomega, il try find a pic, its the perfect ration of omega 3/6/9 - Yes theres a nine lol! Im not sure WHAT IT STANDS FOR but there's a 9.
Let me see what I can find and send you a pic.
