fenugreek dose

#1

Hi, everyone. I've read at multiple sites that you will start to smell like maple syrup once you've reached the right dose of fenugreek. Thus far, I don't smell at all and I've been taking 1 tablespoon of fenugreek seeds. I would soak them over night in water, drink the water with my morning pills, then eat the seeds for breakfast. Can anyone confirm how much to take of fenugreek seeds to be effective? thank you.

nsas, could I ask what amount of fenugreek do you take?, the hair on your breast could be coming from the fenugreek, (It contains a very small amount of T).

I was taking something between 7000 & 8000 mg of seeds a day ( I made a tea with them ) then like you, afterwards I was eating the seeds. After a while my pee and underarms did smell like maple.

Hi, Lotus. I bought a bag of fenugreek seeds from amazon and have been taking one tablespoonful of seeds. Not sure what mg that is equivalent to.

What's the equivalent of 7000-8000mg of seeds converted to teaspoon? I just bought the bag of seeds from amazon, but have no idea how much mg I'm taking. Also, did you see results?

Well here's another issue I see,

Flaxseed oil-Ligan, massage, omega-3 fatty acids, Flax seed oil can increase prolactin, at the cost of lowering estrogen, (lignans inhibit aromatase, slows down the conversion of testosterone to estrogen).

Just my opinion but I'd get rid of flaxseed, maybe switch to another oil like coconut oil.


But that amount of fenugreek is really low and shouldn't increase unwanted hair, but you never know?. You could have an intolerance or insensitivity, here's some info on fenugreek:

I'm so confused. I see everyone is using flax seed oil for massage and I could sworn people were using it while taking fenugreek. Okay, no more flax seed oil. I have fenugreek seeds. How much should I take in teaspoons?

Also this is what I'm taking now:

Bcp
500mg PM twice a day
Fenugreek seeds 1 tablespoon once daily
Spearmint tea 1 teaspoon twice daily
PM cream in follicular phase
PC in luteal phase
Massage daily. Pumping daily for 1 hour.
Will now get rid of flaxseed oil.
Should I add fennel seeds?
Any other suggestions? Please help me. I've been doing NBE since 1/13 with very little result. I just want a growth spurt by the end of next month so I know I'm on the right track.

Also this is what I'm taking now:

Bcp
500mg PM twice a day--(GOOD)
Fenugreek seeds 1 tablespoon once daily ---(2xdaily)
Spearmint tea 1 teaspoon twice daily--(ok)
PM cream in follicular phase--(ok)
PC in luteal phase--(good)
Massage daily. Pumping daily for 1 hour. (Excellent)
Will now get rid of flaxseed oil.--(I would)
Should I add fennel seeds?--(yes, Fennel-Promotes milk production, nutrient rich for NBE growth, stimulates the growth of breast tissue)

Any other suggestions? Please help me. I've been doing NBE since 1/13 with very little result. I just want a growth spurt by the end of next month so I know I'm on the right track.

I understand, flax is a funny thing, it contains one of the highest ratios of phytoestrogen but it also comes with the price (potential) of non growth, the information is out there and it's just what others and I've have found. No need to panic yet sweetie, try this plan for a few weeks and see if your getting any new sensations and please let us know.

Hugs!

Omg! Thank you so much, Lotus. You're a lifesaver. Hopefully I can finally have a full bosom. I saw your pics as well. I want your breasts :-)

Oh, one more question. Should I cycle PM and fenugreek? Ceci does. She was taking PM during her follicular phase and fenugreek during her luteal phase. I was taking PM throughout bc I'm taking BCP.
