Today's chapter:
The strange case of the disappearing tingles.
What the title says. I explained some posts ago that my “breast sensations” have always been soft and random, so when they became lighter and lighter 2 or 3 weeks ago I didn't care much about it... The problem was that I wasn't seeing any more improvement in size/swelling either... so I thought that perhaps my tingles were more important than I thought, no matter how light they were, and if there's no tingle there's no progress. I started to worry and decided to rethink my program.
I browsed some threads, read about doses according to body weight, and feared I was overdoing things a bit.... So one day I cut everything down, trying to bring my tingles back. My getting back to basics included using La Femme again.
After more than a week of experiments I finally felt things in my breasts, tingles that sometimes lasted for hours
, so these are the herbs and doses that seem to be working for me right now:
-1550mg hops
-640mg SP extract
-610mg FG
-Massages with La Femme + FG extract
I'm doubting about the Wild Yam, I get the feeling it stops the tingles, or perhaps it's a coincidence, I'm not sure. So bad, because it helped a lot with my lower belly cramps, which have come back these last few days
I'm beginning to suspect these cramps might be caused by La Femme lotion, not by the hops: the lotion's label says it's “Formulated with botanicals and other natural ingredients for PMS support” and “Includes herbs and antioxidants for supporting the immune system”, so I guess its effect may go beyond the breast tissue and affect other areas of the body¿?? ovaries¿??
And I've been checking my notebook and I didn't report any pain or discomfort during the 18 days I rested from it... Coincidende? Humm. I added the lotion and the hops to my program at the same time, so perhaps I blamed the herb by mistake... I'll keep on investigating...
Anyway! Tingles and tenderness came back last weekend and now they're more or less constant. So bad I have no assurance the tingles mean something, perhaps they're just that, sensations that got nothing to do with breast growth, but they must indicate that something is happening there right? I've had no growth this month, only this week I've started to see some nice swelling again.
Not everything's bad though, the other day I took my old jacket, which I hadn't worn since last September/October and I was happy to feel it was very tight in the chest area
it's funny because my jackets always fit tighter on the hip area, never on the bust, so the fact that there's been a little improvement gives me hope 
Well, some comments and random stuff:
Hops: Very glad with this, it doesn't make me sleepy or depressive. I'm wondering if I'm too hyperactive or my pills are just low quality lol.
Saw palmetto extract: While i was trying to bring my tingles back I experimented with smaller doses and my skin broke out Now it looks good-good again!
I've been monitoring the hairs I pluck form my areolas, and some of them, which I plucked 3 or 4 weeks ago haven't grown back! yay! Facial hairs are harder to track but they're thinner too (though they seem to never go away completely...)
Spearmint tea: For the extra anti-androgen effect. Follicular Phase only. During my quest for recovering my tingles I took only one cup per day, now I'm taking two again. No esophagus pain for the moment. I might take it sporadically during Luteal... it's still my favourite tea
Exercise: I've been skipping my abdominal exercises, life has got me a bit busy lately... but I still do a 30-40 min walking session everyday. I also do my yoga.
Hypnosis session: Loooooooove CD5. There's a bit where you're told to go back to some time when you experienced timelessness (I've experienced that, don't laugh at me please!) and once you're there feel you have bigger breasts, and after that, you have to “relive” or visualize past experiences BUT with big breasts, and do the same with future experiences. I think it's very cool. Love it, love it!!
Massage: I still do the chi massage (400-500 rotations) followed by a circular rubbing, applying some pressure, I think I get better swelling this way. But it could be the FG extract.
Before the fat brushing and the chi massage I do the pressure points, but now only “Chiyomilk style” plus the center point.
P.S.: Another strange case: The dissappearing allergy.
I have only taken my antihistamine three or four times since Spring came. My allergy has never had mercy on me so this is very strange. I wonder if it's some herb performing the miracle or my body has healed itself some way. On the other hand my legs and arms are rather itchy, so perhaps this year my allergy has moved from my respiratory system to my skin. Who knows.
P.S. 2: I'm going to take a rest from oral herbs on my next cycle. I'll take Milk Thistle for cleansing the liver and keep on applying my topicals and taking my Biosil, protein, hypnosis sessions, massage etc. I don't want to, but I think I must do it; a rest from herbs is good for your health isn't it? *sigh*
Happy growing everyone!!

Spearmint definitely worked wonders for my acne. The Saw palmetto has been good to me too, just not as good.
