Breast massage is a very important part of a successful breast enlargement routine but dry massage is not recommended as it can be uncomfortable and not good for the delicate skin around the breasts. You can use water and/or soap in the shower to help hands glide smoothly over the breasts but using an oil is best for breast massage. There are a number of natural oils that you can use, each with its own benefit. Below are five oils that are popular in the natural breast enlargement community for breast massage.

Borage oil 

Borage oil (aka Starflower oil) is taken as an oral supplement by many NBE’ers as part of their natural breast enlargement routine but many of these women also use borage oil for their breast massage. Borage oil has some of the highest levels of GLA (gamma-linolenic acid) which is said to regulate hormones and is beneficial to NBE. It is also good for the skin and helps to relieve PMS symptoms.

Borage oil is generally found in the form of liquid gel caps but you can easily snip the capsules with some scissors and squeeze out the oil. You will probably need about 2 caps per massage session, depending on size of capsule and massage area.

Evening Primrose Oil

Evening Primrose Oil is another supplement that is taken orally by many NBE’ers as well as used for breast massage. It is similar to Borage oil in that it contains GLA but in lower amounts. EPO is generally found as liquid gel caps but NOW foods has EPO available as a topical oil in a bottle.

Coconut oil

Our favorite oil to massage with is coconut oil because it is not too thick and not too greasy. It also has a very light scent, depending on which brand you buy. Coconut oil is excellent for the skin as it is easily absorbed and it is also an antibacterial and antifungal but be careful as some people have complained that it clogged their pores. Some people have claimed that massaging with coconut oil has helped them grow bigger breasts.

Olive Oil

Extra virgin olive oil (yes, the kind you cook with) is good for moisturizing the skin and great for breast massage. It is easy to find and there are so many options available to fit anyone’s budget. If you choose to use olive oil, be sure that it is cold-pressed and hexane free, if possible, as these are the least processed, most beneficial forms of the oil. Only down side in our opinion is that olive oil is thicker than oils like coconut oil which can make it messier to use. Some people have complained that olive oil has an unpleasant scent as well.

Cocoa Butter

Cocoa butter is the vegetable fat extracted from the cocoa bean.  Cocoa butter is popular because of its moisturizing and skin healing properties. Many NBE’ers use cocoa butter because it is inexpensive and is available in bulk which is great for those on a budget.  The smell of cocoa butter can be a little strong but there are a number of brands available that contain a light or no scent variety.  Another bonus of using cocoa butter is that it is said to help prevent and reduce stretchmarks which many of us may have on our breasts due any number of reasons including puberty or pregnancy.

These are just a few of the popular oils that NBE’ers use as part of their breast enlargement routine. Try them out and see what works best for you. You can massage with just the oil or create a “boobie batter” by adding herbal extracts like fenugreek or pueraria mirifica for added benefit.

Like many things NBE, everyone’s body responds to bovine ovary supplements differently. Some people report experiencing a number of side effects when taking BO while many others report no side effects at all. So what are the possible side effects of taking bovine ovary and how can you minimize them?

Acne

To put it simply, BO stimulates the pituitary gland and causes your body to go into “puberty mode.” Similar to going through puberty as a teen, one common side effect of taking bovine ovary is acne.

If you experience acne from taking BO, it is recommended that you increase your anti-androgens. You can easily do this by drinking spearmint tea. If you have a bad case of acne, try adding saw palmetto to your regimen. Some people have reported that taking MSM and collagen also helped to clear up their skin.

Yeast Infection

Smelly vaginal odor is another side effect of bovine ovary reported by a few NBE’ers. It appears to be similar to a yeast infection but usually goes away on its own after a few weeks. Others have reported experiencing a full on yeast infection as a result of taking BO. Some ways to prevent or minimize this is to take vitamin C which will help raise the pH in your system and should inhibit yeast growth. Another option is to take Acidophilus which is a “good bacteria” and helps to keep everything in check down there.

Additional Side Effects

Additional side effects of taking bovine ovary for breast growth include moodiness, weight gain and disruptions is your cycle. Some women have reported longer periods while others have reported that their periods got shorter. Some reported heavier periods, others reported lighter. So if you experience a change in your period as a result of taking BO, you shouldn’t be too alarmed.

As previously mentioned, you may or may not experience any of the side effects mentioned above while taking bovine ovary. If you do experience any unwanted side effects, try lowering your dosage or taking a break and doing a cleanse. If the side effects persist, you may want to switch to another natural breast enlargement method like herbs. A number of NBE’ers who experienced side effects while using BO, reported successful breast growth from herbs and vice versa.

Whether taking BO or herbs, always start out slowly with small dosages and work your way up to the full dosage. This will give your body time to adjust and minimze the potential for side effects.

Phyto-estrogens are plant-based estrogens that are commonly used for natural breast enlargement. They mimic human estrogen in the body and help grow the milk ducts in the breasts. For successful breast growth, phyto-estrogens are generally taken with other phyto-hormones such as phyto-progestins.

Phyto-estrogens are fairly inexpensive and the choices are many. Those who take phyto-estrogens as part of their NBE routine generally take it as an herbal supplement though phyto-estrogens can be found in foods like cereal and tofu.

List of Phyto-estrogens for Breast Enlargement

• Pueraria Mirifica is the most potent of phyto-estrogens on the planet and is generally taken as a stand alone herb for breast enlargement. It only grows in Thailand and is a popular breast enhancement option in many Asian countries.  Read more:  Pueraria Mirifica: Breast Enlargement Super Herb

• Soy is a phyto-estrogen that is easily found foods like tofu, edamame and soy milk. There is much debate on whether or not soy is good for your body and NBE overall. Some say that soy lowers thyroid function which is not good for NBE but others say that the isoflavonoids found in soy are beneficial to breast growth. Many NBE’ers in Asian countries drink soy milk as part of their NBE routine. We recommend doing your research and deciding for yourself if you would like to add soy to your routine.

• Shatavari (asparagus racemosus) is a species of asaparagus found in India. It a popular phyto-estrogen used in ayurvedic medicine for breast enhancement and is said to be very effective.

• Hops is a common phyto-estrogen used for breast enlargement. It is also an anti-androgen which are generally taken to decrease the production of dihydrotestosterone (DHT). The hops used for breast enlargement is the same hops that is used to make beer. Read More: Drink Bee, Grow Bigger Breasts?

• Flaxseeds contain some of the highest amounts of phyto-estrogens.  It is generally taken as a flaxseed oil supplement.  The flaxseeds are also ground up and added to smoothies and other foods like salads.

• Red clover is a phyto-estrogen that is taken for natural breast enlargement because of it’s phyto-progestin properties as well. Phyto-progestins are said to help grow the milk glands and round out the breasts.

• Licorice has many benefits for breast enlargement. It is a phyto-estrogen, phyto-progestin, anti-androgen and also used to increase prolactin levels in the body.

Phyto-estrogen Tips

If you choose to use phytoestrogens as part of your breast enlargement routine, here are some tips to help you get started.

• ramp up – start with a low dosage and work your way up to the full dosage. Usually over a period of a week or two.  This will give your body a chance to get used to them and lessen the chance of any side effects like headaches and dizziness, if any.
• take breaks –  estrogen receptors in the body can get overloaded and not respond properly after continued use of phyto-estrogens.  It is a good idea to take a break and do a Milk Thistle cleanse every few months to clear receptors and give them a break.
• don’t over do it – more is not always better with NBE. All you need is one phyto-estrogen.  You don’t want to overload your estrogen receptors. When using herbs for breast growth, you will most likely need to create a blend of herbs for successful breast growth which include a mix of one phyto-estrogen, one phyto-progesin, etc.

Phyto-estrogens and Cancer Risk

There is some debate on whether or not phyto-estrogens cause cancer. Some believe that the type of phyto-estrogens found in herbs like Pueraria Mirifica can help prevent cancer while other believe that any type of phyto-estrogen has the potential to feed cancer cells.

To be safe, if you have a history of estrogen cancer in your family, it is recommended that you do not take phyto-estrogens. But no worries – there are a number of non-hormonal ways to grow bigger breasts like using a breast enlargement pump or massaging with a good Volufiline™ cream.

Pueraria Mirifica is a favorite among NBE’ers because of its potency as a phyto-estrogen and effectiveness in growing breasts. It has gained popularity in recent years due to the immense success of Chiyomilk. She grew 3 cup sizes in 2 years (!) using PM as the main component of her breast enlargement routine. If you are thinking about following in the footsteps of Chiyomilk and giving Pueraria Mirifica a try, here are some tips to maximize success.

Cleanse

Before starting your PM regimen, you will want to do a liver cleanse to clear out your estrogen receptors so that they are operating at 100%. Though you may have never taken an estrogen supplement, there is still a chance your receptors may be overloaded as many products and foods contain even small amounts of phyo-estrogens or chemicals that affect your hormone levels. Over time, it can build up and when your estrogen receptors are overloaded, they don’t respond as well. Here is a simple and inexpensive liver cleanse you can do – Milk Thistle Cleanse for NBE.

Consistent Flow

Divide your PM dosage into two or three equal dosages. Either split between a morning and evening dose or morning, afternoon and evening dose. This will give your body a consistent flow of the active ingredient. Dividing the dosages up also allows for a better chance of your body absorbing more of the product. When you take it all at once, a majority of it is processed out of your body and wasted.

Calcium

Calcium is not only good for the bones but it’s good for NBE, too. Drinking milk with your PM supplement is highly recommended as it aids in the maximum absorption of PM by your body. If drinking milk is not an option, other drinks that contain calcium like soy milk or a good ol’ calcium supplement taken with your PM works just as well.

Cycle

There are three ways to take pueraria mirifica but the most effective appears to be cycling. This means taking PM at specific times during your menstrual cycle. If you choose to cycle pueraria mirifica, you will want to take PM only during your follicular phase as your estrogen levels are naturally high during this period. During your luteal phase, your estrogen levels are naturally at their lowest so you will want to stop taking PM during this time.

Progesterone cream

Though this may not work for everyone, many people have experienced good growth by cycling PM with a progesterone cream. This means taking pueraria mirifica only during follicular phase and progesterone cream only during your luteal phase. Read More: Progesterone Cream for Breast Growth.

Take Breaks

You can expect to be on pueraria mirifica for at least 6-9 months, maybe even longer. It is highly recommended that you take a break a few times during your journey. This means stopping PM and all supplements you are taking as part of your natural breast enlargement routine. While on your break, it is a good idea to do a liver cleanse. This will give you body a break and the cleanse will reset your receptors so your body is working optimally at receiving and processing all the active ingredients in the supplements you are taking to grow breasts.

Massage

Breast massage is an absolute must during any breast enlargement program. Massage increases circulation to the breasts which helps to bring more blood, oxygen and nutrients to your growing breasts.  Massage also helps to remove toxins from the breast area.  You can couple your pueraria mirifica pills with a pueraria mirifica breast cream or you can simply use a body lotion or oil.  What matters most is that you do the massage, everyday.

If you know anything about natural breast enlargement, you know that breast massage is essential for successful breast growth. Whether your routine consists of pills, pumps or creams, massage is a must even if you can only squeeze in just 5 minutes a day. Massage helps to increase circulation in the breast area which helps to bring nutrients and other goodies from your breast enhancement products to the breasts which helps them grow.

A favorite among NBE’ers is the Chi Breast Massage. It is said to be one of the easiest and most beneficial massages you can do as part of your breast enlargement routine. In case you never heard of the Chi Breast Massage, read Chi Breast Massage for Breast Growth.

The Chi Breast Massage is super easy to do and only takes a few minutes a day. But – if you are wanting to kick it up a notch, below are two additional techniques you can add to your breast enlargement routine.

Instructions:

1. With left hand, glide from outer side of left breast towards the nipple in a horizontal motion.
2. With right hand, glide from bottom of left breast up towards the nipples.

Breast Massage Tips

• Your breasts are very delicate so be gentle on them.
• Avoid the nipples as they are delicate and sensitive.
• Be sure to use an oil or lotion for added comfort and benefit.
• Warm hands before performing a massage technique by rubbing them together.

Herbal breast enlargement can require some experimenting to find the right balance of hormones that will trigger your body into growing breasts. This may include taking a mix of phyto-estrogens, phyto-progestins, and/or anti-androgens. But what are these things and how do they affect breast growth? Below is a breakdown of each, including how they affect breast growth and what herbs contain that property.

Phyto-estrogen

Phyto-estrogens are plant based estrogens that mimic human estrogen. Phyto-estrogens are found in many herbal supplements and in foods we eat. In terms of natural breast enlargement, they are generally taken to increase estrogen levels in the body as estrogen is a key component for breast growth. But do be aware that too much estrogen is not good. Herbs that contain phyto-estrogens include:

• Pueraria Mirifica
• Fenugreek
• Hops
• Ashagawanda
• Shatavari
• Red Clover
• Licorice

Phyto-progestin

Phyto-progestins are taken to increase progesterone levels. Progesterone is another key component in breast growth and is responsible for the formation of the glands in the breasts.  Herbs containing phyto-progestins include:

• Licorice root
• Damiana leaf
• Oregano
• Fennel Seed
• Red Clover
• Chasteberry (Vitex)
• Dill

Prolactin

Prolactin is another important hormone in breast development. Prolactin is naturally produced by the body during puberty and pregnancy but can also be produced by the body when nipples are stimulated. Herbs can also be taken to increase prolactin levels such as:

• Fenugreek
• Hops
• Goat’s Rue
• Blessed Thistle

Androgens

Testosterone, a type of androgen hormone, is needed for natural breast enlargement as estrogens are made from testosterone. Though taking androgens is not very common in natural breast enlargement, there are some who need to take androgens to help balance out their testosterone levels. Herbs used to increase testosterone levels include:

• Maca Root
• Tribulus Terrestris

Anti-androgen

Anti-androgens block the effects or production of masculinizing hormones known as androgens. This is the simplest explanation as there are different classes of androgens and various anti-androgens affect them differently. Most women generally do not need to worry about adding anti-androgens as part of the NBE routine but there are some including those who are androgen dominant or suffer from PCOS.

• Spearmint
• Saw Palmetto
• Nettle Root
• Borage seed Oil
• Green Tea
• White Peony
• Chasteberry (vitex)
• Red Reishi

There is so much more information on the topic of herbs and hormones.  This post is just an introduction but we will be diving deeper into the topic in future posts. In the meantime, we recommend doing your research if you are interested in balancing hormone levels with the use of herbs.

Hormone Tests

If you are interested in doing NBE right, the best place to start is by getting a hormone test. The tests can be a little pricey but they will save you time with having to figure out what you need/don’t need and what works/doesn’t work.

With a hormone test, you be able to see where your levels are currently which can help direct your routine. You will know where you are low and where you are high and be able to take herbs accordingly. For example – if you are high in estrogen and low in progesterone, you will want to up your progesterone by using a progesterone cream or taking one of the herbs listed above.

So if you are serious about growing breasts, it’s highly recommended that you take a hormone test, it will save you money and time in the long run.  You can purchase hormone tests at Amazon or places like Any Lab Test Now will administer the test for you and send it off.  There is also Dr. Lee’s hormone questionnaire that can help you determine where you might be high/low with your hormone levels.

Borage oil is a favorite among many who seek natural breast enlargement. It is taken both internally and applied externally by NBE’ers as part of their breast enlargement routines. So what is borage oil and how does borage oil benefit breast growth?

Borage is also known as starflower because of its beautiful blue, star-shaped flowers. It is native to the Mediterranean but grows in other parts of the world. Borage plants are edible and eaten fresh or as a dried herb. The seeds are used to make Borage Seed Oil, better known as Borage Oil or Starflower Oil. Borage oil is rich in essential fatty acids including Omega-6 and Omega-9. It is especially rich in the fatty acid gamma linolenic acid (GLA).

Benefits for Breast Enlargement

Borage oil is taken by NBE’ers because of it’s high GLA content. The fatty acids, like the ones found in borage oil, are essential for aromatase activity – conversion of testosterone to estrogen. Borage oil also contains phytoestrogens and has traditionally been used to increase milk supply. It also balances hormones which is beneficial to NBE.

Borage Oil vs Evening Primrose Oil

Borage oil and evening primrose oil are used similarly in NBE. Both are taken internally and used externally for breast massage. NBE’ers generally take one or the other but not both together. Some NBE’ers prefer borage oil because it has a higher GLA content than EPO. The average GLA content in borage oil is 20-27% while EPO only averages about 7-14%.

Some NBE’ers prefer EPO because it is less expensive than borage oil yet still effective. Some people also believe that EPO is safer than borage oil as high amounts of borage oil is said to be toxic. But borage oil is safe for the most part as much of the toxic chemical is processed out during manufacturing.

Additional Health Benefits

Besides increasing milk supply and regulating hormones, borage oil is said to be beneficial to the skin and is used to treat dermatitis and eczema. It also used to relieve PMS symptoms and lower blood pressure.  Borage oil also contains anti-inflammatory properties and is used to relieve pain and swelling.

Where to Buy

Borage oil can be found in local health food stores as well as online. It is usually available in a liquid capsule form only so if you plan to use borage oil for breast massage, you will need to break open a capsule or two to massage with. Unfortunately, the oil is not available in a bottle like EPO is.

Borage Oil and Toxicity

The borage plant contains a chemical called pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs).  PAs are toxic and when taken internally, PA’s are said to cause liver damage and even cancer.  Borage oil can be created PA-free during the manufacturing process so when purchasing borage oil, check that it is labled PA-free.  Do keep in mind that no borage oil is 100% PA-free but they are under the limit for safe consumption.  You would need to take hundreds of pills per day to experience any harmful effects.

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, it is recommended that you do not take any borage oil.  There is not enough research on the safety of borage oil during pregnancy and breastfeeding at this time.

Estrogen dominance – When I first heard the term, I thought it meant your estrogen levels were out of wack and your body was spewing out excessive amounts of estrogen, when in fact it basically means that you have no or low progesterone to balance out the estrogen. So you can have little, normal, or excessive amounts of estrogen but if your progesterone levels are low or nil, you are estrogen dominant.

How Does One Become Estrogen Dominant

There are a number of ways one can become estrogen dominant. Pretty much just living on the planet can make you susceptible to becoming estrogen dominant. We are constantly exposed to xenoestrogens, or chemical compounds that imitate human estrogen.

Xenoestrogens are in many of the foods we eat. Many of the fruits and vegetables we consume can contain xenoestrogens due to the pesticides and herbicides they are sprayed with.

Xenoestrogens are also found in a majority of plastics, cosmetics, soaps, shampoos, furniture, car exhaust, and the list goes on. So unless you live in a bubble, there is chance that you have some degree of estrogen dominance. It is believed that about 50% of women in the western world that are over 35 years old are estrogen dominant. It’s easy to see why.

But it’s not just our environment and the foods we eat, good ‘ol stress and excess body fat can cause estrogen dominance as well.

How To Tell If You Are Estrogen Dominant

There are many symptoms of estrogen dominance.  Most of the symptoms arise because of the brain and body being overstimulated by estrogen.  Below are just a few of the symptoms.

• low libido
• irregular periods
• bloating (water retention)
• mood swings (irritability and depression)
• hair loss
• foggy thinking
• fatigue
• insomnia

How Does Estrogen Dominance Affect Natural Breast Enlargement

Many of the natural breast enlargement supplements out there focus on increasing estrogen levels to grow bigger breasts.  That may work for some people but estrogen dominance may be the key to why so many people fail at natural breast enlargement.  

Natural breast enlargement is a delicate balancing act and important for successful breast growth is the estrogen/progesterone balance.  If you are estrogen dominant and adding more estrogen to your system, it can cause you to stall out.  Your estrogen receptors become overloaded and no longer respond.

What You Can Do

If you are already on a breast enlargement routine, you will want to stop everything and get your levels back in order.  You should first do a Milk Thistle Cleanse.  This will help to clear out any excess estrogen in the liver. Then you will want to start a progesterone cream regimen. Like with herbs, you should start with a small dose and ramp up. Apply progesterone cream daily until symptoms of estrogen dominance go away. Then cycle progesterone cream.  You can read more about cycling progesterone cream here -> Breast Growth with Progesterone Cream.

Additional ways to balance you estrogen levels include exercising to lose excess body fat and decrease stress.

How To Know If You Are Estrogen Dominant

Dr Lee offers a simple online questionnaire you can take regarding your hormone levels.  If you think you may be estrogen dominant, you will want to get a test to confirm.  Below are two options for testing.

• Visit an endocrinologist (specialist in the endocrine system and hormones).  They can give you a blood test to check your hormone levels.
• Order a do-it-yourself hormone kit online.  You simply take a saliva sample and mail in to a lab.  This is a good option if you don’t have health insurance but DIY hormone tests are still a bit pricey depending on how many hormones you test for. They can range from $50 for a 1 hormone test to $315 for a 10 hormone test.

Learn More

If you would like to learn more about hormone balance, pick up Dr. John Lee’s Hormone Balance Made Simple: The Essential How-to Guide to Symptoms, Dosage, Timing, and More.  He actually coined the term “Estrogen Dominance” and his website is the link we provide for the hormone questionnaire above.

While it is absolutely possible to grow bigger breasts naturally, the sad truth is, many people will fail. Much disappointment will be experienced as well as time and money wasted. There are many reasons one might fail but I believe there are three core reasons for failure.

Don’t Know Enough

Many people believe that natural breast enlargement is just taking some pills everyday and that’s it. Wouldn’t it be nice if it were that easy. Unfortunately, it is not. Before diving into a natural breast enlargement program, educate yourself. There are so many aspects of natural breast enlargement that can make or break your success. You will also learn what realist expectations are for growing breasts naturally and won’t be disappointed if you don’t see any signs of growth within two weeks.

It’s so tempting to just jump right in and try something that sounds good but take a little time.  This site was created to be a resource for you so go learn! It will save you time, money and disappointment in the long run.

Don’t Give it Enough Time to Work / Give Up Way Too Early

We live in time of instant gratification. We want it and we want it NOW! If we don’t see results in a week or two, we’re on to the next thing. Unfortunately, natural breast enlargement takes time and a lot of patience.

Yes, there are companies that promise bigger breasts in 30 days but they are selling false hopes. Talk to anyone who has had real, successful, permanent breast growth and most will tell you it took months, even years to grow their breasts. I’ll use the most famous of them all, Chiyomilk, as an example – 3 cup sizes in 2 years! Yes, it took a long time for her to grow but her breasts look a-ma-zing and they are all natural!

Natural breast enlargement is a process and unfortunately the process takes time. If you can hold out, it will be well worth it! You will want to give a method at least 3-6 months to work, even longer if possible. Think about it this way – breast growth during puberty took years so why would we expect breasts to grow in a few weeks?

Lack of Commitment / Not Consistent

Besides being patient, one of the hardest parts of natural breast enlargement is being consistent. Once you start a regimen, you need to commit to doing it everyday otherwise you’ll just be wasting your time and money. You will need to take your supplements everyday. You will need to massage everyday. You will need to pump everyday. Whatever method you choose to use, you will need to do it everyday. Depending on how extensive your routine is, it can be like a part-time job. And with our busy schedules, it can be so easy to fall off.

Sure you can miss a day or two here and there but it’s so easy for it to snowball and before you know you’ve missed a week or more which can set you back in your routine. For example, if you are taking supplements, you want a steady flow in your system.  When you miss more than a day or two, you break that flow and have to build it back up which can equal more time and more money.

Here are some tips to help stay consistent – Consistency is the Key to Any NBE Program

The best thing you can do it educate yourself. That way you know the best course to take for your body and minimize the experimenting.  You will also know what to expect, all of which can save you time and money in the end.

The world of natural breast enlargement can be overwhelming with so many options to choose from. And to add to the confusion, the possibility of the method you choose not working. No one wants to spend more money than they need to or waste more time than necessary.

Below are some popular breast enlargement programs to help you get started in crafting your own program.

Chiyomilk’s Breast Enlargement Program

Chiyomilk has experienced some amazing results with natural breast enlargement so it’s easy to see why people want to copy her program. As a result, her routine is one of the most popular routines for growing bigger breasts naturally. The beauty of this routine is that Chiyomilk has laid out the foundation, you just need to figure out which products to use based on budget and accessibility.

Being from Japan, all the products Chiyomilk used are from Japan but that doesn’t mean we can’t get a hold of them. Thanks to websites like Rakuten, we also have access to products like Ladies Pueraria 99%, Glamour and Whitex, all of which contributed to Chiyomilk’s success.

If you are not comfortable with purchasing products from Japan or it’s not within your budget, there are alternatives you can purchase to create your own Chiyomilk routine.

Breast Enlargement Pump (Noogleberry) + Massage + Binaural Beats or Hypnosis

Supplements are not necessary to grow bigger breasts. If you are hesitant to use herbs or have a history of estrogen-based cancer in your family, breast enlargement pumps are a great option, specifically Noogleberry. It is inexpensive and easy to use. One thing to be aware of is noogling will take a little more time and effort than taking pills.

Noogling can take about an hour a day and you will also need to massage. While massage is a must in any routine, massaging is equally important to noogling in this breast enlargement program. A minimum of 20 minutes of massage two times per day is suggested.  Some people massage as much as they noogle. So if they noogle for an hour each day, they also massage for an hour each day.

An optional addition to a breast enlargement pump program is the use of the subconscious mind. They say it’s a powerful thing so why not use it to help you grow breasts! Some people listen to hypnosis and/or binaural beats while noogling. You can easily listen to them while pumping or massaging or while on your computer.

Here is a popular binaural beat for breast enlargement – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2UIuhsoV60g

Breast Enlargement Herbs + Massage

Breast enlarging herbs have always been a popular option but before jumping into an herbal breast enlargement routine, you should invest in a hormone test. Yes, they are a little pricey but they can save you time, money and your health in the long run.

For the most successful breast growth in the shortest time possible, you will want to know where you stand hormonally before adding more hormones to your system. More is not always good when it comes to natural breast enlargement.

For example,if you start taking phytoestrogens to up your estrogen levels and you are already estrogen dominant, you won’t grow breasts and adding the extra estrogen to your system could cause health issues. You may learn from taking a hormone test that your testosterone levels are high.  You start drinking spearmint tea to level your testosterone out and discover that was the key all along, not adding estrogen.  Next thing you know, you start experiencing some growth.

No matter what routine you choose, do your research. It can be so tempting to just jump in and get started on a breast enlargement program but taking a little time now can save you a little time in the end.

Big breasts, little breasts, tear-shaped or round. Our breasts are as unique as we are and no one has the exact same pair. And for most of us, the breasts on our body aren’t even identical. One side may be smaller than the other, saggier than the other, unique in their own way.

So what determines breast size? Is it our mothers and the other women in our family aka genetics? Is it the foods we eat? Breast size is mainly determined by genetics but there are additional factors that may contribute to one’s breast size (and shape).

Genetics

Genes affect every aspect of your body – your height, your hair color and breast size to name a few. In fact, genes are said to be the biggest contributing factor in the size and shape of your breasts. The way your breasts look and feel actually come from both sides of your family. So genes from your mom and genes from your dad contribute to your breast characteristics. If your mom is a C cup, there is a good chance you will be around a C cup but it is not guaranteed as there are so many other factors that may cause your breasts to be bigger or smaller.

Ethnicity

Ethnicity can also be a contributing factor to breast size. Asian women generally have naturally small breasts (averaging a B cup) while Eastern European women generally have bigger breasts (averaging a D cup). Of course there are always exceptions as there are plenty of European women with naturally small breasts and Asian women with naturally bigger breasts.

Hormones

Hormone levels during puberty can contribute to breast size. Breast growth takes a delicate balancing act of estrogen, progesterone, prolactin, testosterone and growth hormone. If this balance if off, it may lead to breasts not developing to their fullest potential.

Weight

Breasts are made of mostly fat tissue and for most people, their breasts fluctuate in size as they gain and lose weight. But for those who have dense breasts or more tissue and less fat tissue, they will not experience as much breast loss when they lose weight – lucky them!

Will Genetics Affect Breast Growth with Natural Breast Enlargement?

Genetics is said to play a big role in breast characteristics so does this mean if you and the women in your family have small breasts, there is no hope for you with Natural Breast Enlargement?

I personally do not think so. I think what matters most is finding the right program, being consistent and sticking it out until you reach your desired breast size. Chiyomilk, Mayusakimilk and a lady from Korea (A cup to E cup in 7 years!) are prime examples of this. Each one of these women started out with a B cup or smaller but after years of dedication with their breast enlargement program, they were able to grow a considerable amount.

Considering these women started out around a B cup and Asian women overall have smaller breasts, I highly doubt these women had naturally E or F cups in their family. So yes, I think you can grow past your family norm and even ethnic norm with once again – the right program, dedication and time.

Breast enlargement pumps are an excellent method for those who do not want to mess with their hormones to grow breasts naturally. These devices allow for a truly non-hormonal way to get bigger breasts. But, it is important to understand when going into a breast pump program that it will take more effort and a bigger time commitment than most breast enlargement methods.

Here are a few tips for success with breast enlargement pumps.

Use plenty of lube

It is important to have good suction in order for the breast enlargement pump to work effectively. An easy way to ensure good suction is to use plenty of lube. A simple body lotion, cream or cocoa butter works. Oils like coconut, sweet almond and evening primrose are good options as well. Just be sure to put plenty on your breasts before putting on the domes. If you experience “farting” sounds when pumping or the domes are not staying on properly, you may not have enough lube on your breasts to help create a nice seal.

Stay hydrated

There are a number of formulas online to calculate what is the proper amount of water to drink to stay hydrated. The simplest formula is to drink half your body weight in ounces. So if you weigh 130 pounds, you should be drinking 65 ounces of water each day.

Staying hydrated is important to natural breast enlargement as a whole but especially important to a breast enlargement pump routine. Keeping hydrated will help your breast swell long after you take off your domes which in turn helps with achieving permanent results sooner. So if you are not in the habit of drinking water daily, now is a good reason to get started.

Massage and Heat

Some people believe that massaging is just as important as the pumping. Whether you choose to massage as much as you pump (ex – 30 minutes of pumping, 30 minutes of massage) or massage just 10 minutes a day, massaging and using heat before you pump can be beneficial. Even just 10 to 15 minutes of massage and heat before you pump can help your breasts swell more than they would without massage and heat.

Keep warm

After you have taken the domes off and your breasts are nice and swollen, it is a good idea to keep your breasts warm. You do not need to use a heating pad but simply keeping your breasts covered will help maintain the swelling.

Consistency

Like with all things natural breast enlargement, consistency is important. Pumping here and there is not going to help you achieve your breast enlargement goals. For the best, most efficient results, you will need to pump every day. Some people recommend pumping at least twice per day to achieve consistent back to back swelling.

Visualize

Depending on what pumping technique you use, you may have some time to just relax and visualize while the domes are on your breasts. If you can, close your eyes, then see and feel your breasts getting bigger. See and feel the blood and nutrients going to your breasts causing them to grow. Or you can imagine the space in your breasts caused by the suction being filled in with breast tissue, fat cells, whatever works for you.

Besides pills, breast enlargement creams are the next most popular and abundantly available breast enlargement product on the market. Creams fall into the family of products known as topicals which covers everything that can be applied to the skin including lotions, serums and oils.

Below are the many topicals used for breast enlargement.

Creams, lotions, serums, gels

They come in a number of forms but are generally lumped into the category of breast enlargement creams. Not matter the form, they serve the same purpose and each carry an active ingredient that is used to help breasts grow. Most creams, lotions, serums and gels contain a mix of breast enhancing herbs or just one herb like Pueraria Mirifica. Some contain the active ingredient Volufiline or Voluplus which help to increase the size and number of fat cells in the breast.

Other than active ingredients and formulations, there are no major differences between creams, lotions, serums and gels other than physical characteristics. Creams and lotions are generally white while serums and gels are generally clear and thinner in consistency.

Though many breast enlargement creams may claim a cup or more increase in breast size, the percentage of active ingredient in creams are generally low and will not cause significant breast growth if used alone.

Oils

Though there are not many oils that are especially formulated for breast enlargement, oils are a popular addition to breast enlargement regimens. Oils are generally used to make boobie batters or homemade breast enlargement mixes to be used while massaging the breasts. Oils such as borage, evening primrose and coconut oil are mixed with herbs or herbal extracts to create these homemade mixes.

Oils are the preferred topical for breast massage by many NBE’ers because the consistency of the oil allows the hands to glide smoothly over the breasts during the massage. Another bonus of oils is that they don’t absorb into the skin as fast as lotions and creams do so it makes it an ideal product to massage with.

Masks

There are no breast masks on the market that are specifically formulated for breast growth. Like boobie batters, breast masks are made in the kitchen. They can be as simple as smashing a banana or mixing dried herbs like fenugreek with an oil and leaving on your breasts for 20 minutes then washing off.

Soaps
As surprising as it sounds, there are soaps that are especially formulated for breast enlargement. Like breast enhancement creams, soaps contain a mix of breast enlarging herbs or a single herb like Pueraria Mirifica. Just lather up and leave on your breasts for a minute or more then wash off. You can also do your massage program in the shower with the breast enlargement soap. The heat from the shower is ideal for maximum absorption of the product.

Topicals are a good addition to any natural breast enlargement routine but are generally not effective for significant breast growth if used on their own. Massaging with topicals can provide added fullness to the breasts but to see gains of a cup or more, you will want to couple the topical of your choice with either a breast enlargement pill or breast enlargement pump.

Over the past few months I have become obsessed with smoothies. They are so easy to make – just throw everything into the blender and wah-la! I pack them with nutrition so it’s also an easy way to get everything I need in “one meal.”

My morning smoothie is my favorite.  I’ve tweaked it a little for you to make it a Boobie Power Smoothie!

Ingredients
½ – 1 Banana
5 pcs Strawberries
5 pcs Green papaya (cut into cubes)
2 cups Milk, soymilk, coconut water, whatever liquid you desire
1 serv Protein powder
1 serv Collagen powder
1 serv MSM powder
1 serv Flaxseed (ground)
1 serv Spirulina
1-2 tbsp Coconut oil
1-2 tbsp Almond butter

Throw everything into a blender.  Blend until smooth.  Use more or less of what is listed or you can take it out completely.  There is no right or wrong way to make this smoothie.  You can also add a handful of spinach or kale.  If you need it to be sweeter, you can also add some stevia or sweetener of your choice.  I personally think the bananas add enough sweetness.

Note – for many of the items listed it was just easier to put one serving since the actual amount (ie 1 tablespoon, 2 tablespoons, etc) will vary from brand to brand.

Boobie benefits –

• Banana – vitamin B6 which regulates hormones

• Strawberries – phyto-estrogen and vitamin c
• Green papaya – Vitamin A and enzymes that break down protein for maximum absorption by the body
• Milk or soy milk – Protein and calcium. Calcium is especially important if you are on a PM regime as calcium is said to help with maximum absorption of PM. Soy milk has the added benefit of phyto-estrogens.
• Protein powder – doesn’t matter which one you use but potein is a must for breast growth. It is the building block of life.
• Collagen powder – tightens skin and connective tissue which helps to firm up breasts
• MSM powder – helps to build up collagen and improve circulation which helps to bring nutrients to your breasts. MSM is rumored to help maintain breast growth so many NBE’ers take it after they have completed their breast enlargement program.
• Coconut oil – boost thyroid function and balance hormones
• Flaxseed (ground) – phyto-estrogen and source of GLA
• Hemp hearts – good source of protein. Also contains all 20 amino acids and all essential amino acids.
• Spirulina – good source of protein, amino acids and other nutrients which are good for cell regeneration and tissue repair.
• Almond butter – protein, vitamin E, magnesium – helps to maintain hormone balance

In the image above are the products I use for my smoothie.  I forgot to include my collagen powder but in case you are wondering, I use Meiji Amino Collagen from Japan.

Smoothie Tips

Frozen fruits – all the fruits in my smoothie are frozen. It’s just easier and they keep longer. Plus there is good variety available all year long.

Green Papaya – I buy them fresh at the Asian grocery store. I cut the papaya into cubes, freeze and take out as I need it.

Bananas – I’m picky when it comes to bananas. I only eat them fresh if they are still a little firm and are just turning yellow. I refuse to eat them when they start getting dark yellow and if they have any signs of brown, no thank you! That’s when I freeze them for my smoothies – no more wasting bananas! The bananas really help with the flavoring of the smoothie and adds natural sweetness.

Pre-measure – Every Sunday I measure out all the powders, coconut oil and almond butter and put them into 5 small containers (example pictured on the right). This cuts down on a lot of my smoothie making time throughout the week as all I have to do is dump the container into the blender.  I don’t have to measure each item out every time. This can also be done with the frozen fruits if you like.

Wouldn’t it be great if it was easy to grow bigger breasts? What if all we had to do was take a pill and wait a few days then wa-la, breasts! Unfortunately it’s not like that with NBE. Like a beautiful flower, breasts take time to grow. To expect anything less is a bit ridiculous. It takes time to grow muscles and flatten abs when working out, so why would we think growing breasts would be any easier and take a shorter amount of time?

People should go into NBE with realistic expectations so they don’t get disappointed if things are not happening as they thought it should. There are many companies and books selling the idea that breasts can grow in 4-6 weeks. Sure, you might see signs of growth, a little swelling here and there but is the growth permanent? And how much can you really expect to grow?

Results May Vary

As we all know, everyone is different and respond to things differently. Our genes, overall health, diet, and a number of other factors can determine if we are fast responders or slow responders or if a certain breast enlargement program will even work on us. So don’t get discouraged if someone is having amazing growth and that same method is not working for you. Instead, use that success story as inspiration, another example that it is possible to grow bigger breasts naturally.

For more factors that may affect breast size, read The Mystery of Natural Breast Enlargement

How Long Does it Take to Grow?

Once again, we are all different. Some of us will be fast responders or people that experience breast growth or signs of breast growth in a short amount of time. Some of us will be slow responders or people who take a little longer to experience results. No matter which type of responder you are, be patient with yourself and the process. Give your method plenty of time to work. The rule of thumb is to give a method at least 3- 6 months. To experience the most gains and ensure that the growth is permanent, 9 month to a year, even more is recommend.

One way to cut down on the time is to be consistent with your routine and do it every single day. Missing a day here and there is ok but when you start missing days at a time, you are setting yourself back. Each day you do your routine, you are building on top of the previous day. When you miss, some of that build up goes away and you have to start building back up again which can cost time and money in the long run.

How Much Can You Grow?

If you commit to your routine, you can expect to grow at least a cup. There are women who have been super committed to their routine and grew 2 or 3 cups in a span of years.

Signs of Breast Growth

Depending on how you respond to your routine, you might experience signs of growth within a few weeks, other within a few months. Here are some of the signs of growth you might experience  –

• Itchy breasts and/or nipples
• Sore breasts and/or nipples
• Breast fullness

If you don’t experience any of these signs, don’t stress too much.  Just because your breasts are not itchy or sore, it doesn’t mean that you are not growing.  And if you only experience these symptoms for a short period of time, don’t think that you’re breasts have stopped growing.  Everyone experiences growth differently so it’s hard to say how your body will respond.

Natural breast enlargement and breast implants are the two options available to you if you desire bigger breasts. Is one better than the other? It’s all a matter of preference. Both options have their good and bad.  You just need to weigh out the pros and cons to see what works for you.

Breast Implants – CONS

• Cost – One of the major deterrents for breast implants is the cost. Sure, you can get implants for a couple thousand dollars which may still be outside of some people’s budgets, but to get a good set of implants you will most likely need to spend $5000 or more.
• Possibility of complications – Breast implants require a surgical procedure which can result in possible complications. Also an inexperienced or even experienced doctor may “botch” the job and cause the need for additional surgeries or permanently deform your breasts.
• Pain / recovery time – With any surgery, there is pain and recovery time involved. Not just the pain while you heal but you are also required to massage your breasts during this time to help soften your breasts and prevent scar tissue from forming. Massaging your breasts during this time can be extremely painful.
• Scars – In order to get the breast implant into your body an incision will need to be made and depending on the skill of the doctor and/or location of the incision, the scar can be minor or more noticeable.
• Replacements – Breast implants do not last a lifetime. They will generally need to be replaced every 8 to 15 years which will result in more money spent, additional pain and recovery time, and the possibility of complications and additional scar tissue.
• Unnatural look and feel – Breast implants, no matter what they say, provide an unnatural look and feel to the breasts. Some people don’t mind it and actually prefer the “perfect” ball look of the breasts.

Breast implants – PROS

• Instant growth – In the amount of time it takes to complete the surgery, your breasts will have reached your desired size. Perfect for those who like to see immediate results.
• Exact size – With breast implants, you will know the exact size your breasts will be. You actually get to choose your new cup size.

Natural Breast Enlargement – CONS

• Time commitment – The biggest con for NBE is the time commitment. Once a breast enlargement program is selected, you will need to dedicate time and effort every day in order to see results.
• Growth is not instant – Growth takes time which requires patience and trust in the process. If you are in need of immediate results, NBE is not for you.
• Results may not be permanent – There is a possibility that the growth experienced may not be permanent after you stop your NBE program but there are things that can be done to maintain your growth. Also, the longer you are on your routine, the more permanent the growth.
• Experimenting with hormones – Some people are concerned about experimenting with their hormones but there are non-hormonal methods for breast enlargement that are as effective as herbs and other hormonal methods.
• Size unknown – Natural breast enlargement can be a mystery. There is no way to determine what size you will end up being. Most people will go into natural breast enlargement with a goal size but there is no guarantee you’ll reach that size.

Natural Breast Enlargement – PROS

• Less expensive – Natural breast enlargement is less expensive than implants and depending on what method you choose, NBE can be considerably cheaper than implants.
• Improved breast health – Massage is essential to any breast enlargement routine. By performing massage techniques daily, you are improving your overall breast health by increasing circulation to the breast area, releasing tension in the chest and clearing toxins from the body.
• 100% natural breasts – Breast growth from natural breast enlargement results in 100% natural breasts – look and feel! And there are no incisions necessary, so no scars!

Dr. John R. Lee was an expert on hormone replacement therapy for women and his hormone balance test has been a popular tool among NBE’ers for many years.  Many women have used his simple test to uncover hormone imbalances they didn’t know they had and have used the information to improve their breast enlargement routines.

Besides his popular hormone balance test, Dr. Lee is also known for authoring numerous books on hormones and over the weekend, I finally had an opportunity to read one – Dr. John Lee’s Hormone Balance Made Simple: The Essential How-to Guide to Symptoms, Dosage, Timing, and More

First of all – it is a great read and I highly recommend getting a copy for yourself or checking it out at your local library. Every person should have a better understanding of hormones as they affect every part of us. In his book, Dr. Lee shows why balanced hormones are essential to the overall health of women. Unbalanced hormones can lead to a variety of health issues including cancer.

Dr. Lee starts out with explaining the key female sex hormones – estrogen, testosterone and progesterone – which are also hormones that play a key role in natural breast enlargement. He also explains the difference between synthetic hormones and bio-identical hormones and explains how each are made. I had no clue that many synthetic hormones are made from horse urine!

Dr. Lee goes on to discuss his “Three Rules for Hormone Replacement Therapy” which include:

Rule 1: Use hormones only if you need them
Rule 2: Use Bio-identical Hormones Rather Than Synthetic Hormones
Rule 3: Use hormones only in doses that create hormone balance

In his book, Dr. Lee expands on the hormone balance test that is found on his website. The simple test lists various symptoms that you may be experiencing.  Depending on what symptoms you choose, you may be estrogen dominant, estrogen deficient, progesterone dominant, etc.  Dr. Lee is a big proponent of progesterone and is said to have coined the term “estrogen dominance”. Dr. Lee dedicates two chapters to progesterone – “The ABCs of Progesterone” and “How and When to Use Progesterone Cream” – as well as a chapter to estrogen.

The remainder of the book focuses on the various hormone imbalances and how to treat them naturally. An extensive list of symptoms are included in the book with possible hormone imbalances that may cause that symptom. For example:

Hair Loss

• Excess testosterone/male hormones
• Excess estrogen
• Estrogen dominance
• Thyroid deficiency

The book is a very easy read. No difficult medical jargon and he uses a lot of analogies to help the reader understand the content more easily. I highly recommend this book to every women, especially if you are interested in growing bigger breasts as natural breast enlargement is all about balancing hormones.

Between the hormone balance test Dr. Lee offers and the detailed information on various hormone imbalances and how to treat them, you’ll be able to get your hormone levels in optimal breast growing shape before starting your breast enlargement routine.

Can sex make breasts bigger?

Yes, breasts can become bigger during sex but the results are not permanent.  When aroused, the breasts can swell and become up to 25% larger. The swelling is due to the increase in blood to the breasts but unfortunately breasts return back to their normal size shortly after sex.

What in chicken feet makes breasts grow?

Chicken feet, especially chicken feet soup, is a popular topic in the NBE community. There isn’t anything in chicken feet that actually makes breasts grow. If you live in a country where hormones are given to chickens, those hormones may affect breast growth. Here in the United States, the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) prohibits the use of hormones in poultry.

The main reason people each chicken feet is because it is rich in collagen. The collagen strengthens connective tissue which are found in abundance in the breasts. This can help enhance the skin around the breasts and reduce sagging.

Is vitamin C beneficial to breast growth?

Taking vitamin C alone will not grow breasts but it can help with the overall health and appearance of the breasts. Vitamin C plays a role in the synthesis of collagen which is important to maintaining the connective tissue found in the breasts.

Does aloe vera increase breast size?

A study published in the Journal of Jahrom University of Medical Sciences in 2013 stated that aloe vera increased estrogen levels in rats and concluded that aloe vera could have positive effects on the process of fertility. Based on this study, there is a possibility that aloe vera may help increase breast size in humans due to its estrogen activity though it is not known how aloe vera affects human hormone levels.

Is growth from pueraria mirifica permanent?

Many women have experienced successful, permanent breast growth with the use of pueraria mirficia.  How permanent your results are can depend on how long you are on pueraria mirifca. The longer you are on it, the more permanent your results can be. To ensure permanent breast growth, many women do maintenance programs after stopping their primary breast enlargement routine.

Can you mix bovine ovary with maca?

Maca is an adaptogen and helps to balance hormones. It will not conflict with glandulars, like bovine ovaries, so is okay to mix the two but be aware that maca may make your hips bigger.

Can breast enlargement pills affect your menstrual cycle?

It is not uncommon for breast enlargement pills to affect one’s menstrual cycle. Unfortunately it is hard to know if your cycle will be impacted or not. Some women experience late periods, heavy periods or short periods while others experience no change. To minimize disruptions in your cycle, it is recommended that you start your breast enlargement pills on the first day of your cycle or the day that you start your period. This will help you stick with the natural rhythms of your body as you start your NBE program.

Can you mix pueraria mirifica with saw palmetto?

There general rule of thumb is that you should not take more than one of the same type of herb (ie phytoestrogen, phytoprogesterone, etc). So with that said, you wouldn’t want to take PM (a strong phytoestrogen) with other phytoestrogens like red clover or hops. It is okay to take PM with saw palmetto since SP is not a phytoestrogen.

Are Volufiline and Voluplus the same thing?

Volufiline and Voluplus are similar in that they both increase the number and size of fats cells to the area applied but there is a slight difference between the two. Volufiline is derived from the Chinese herb Zhu Mu while Voluplus is derived from nutmeg.

Are painful nipples a sign of breast growth?

Painful nipples can be a sign of breast growth but it might also mean that you massaged too roughly around your nipples. Other signs of breast growth include breast feeling fuller or heavier as well as tingling or soreness in the breasts.

When it comes to aloe vera, most people are familiar with its skin healing properties. From sunburns to cuts, aloe vera is the go to product for many people. Yes, aloe vera is great for skin but did you know that aloe vera has it uses for natural breast enlargement as well?

What is Aloe Vera?

Aloe vera, also known as aloe, is a plant consisting of thick leaves filled with a liquid or gel that is generally applied to the skin. The liquid from the plant can also be made into a juice that can be consumed as is or added to other beverages and smoothies.

Aloe Vera Benefits for Breast Growth

Aloe vera is mainly used as a topical for NBE but drinking aloe juice can also be beneficial for breast growth. Below are some of the breast benefits of the aloe plant.

Hormone Balance – Aloe vera leaves contain phytoestrogens which mimic estrogen and can be important for breast growth. There are a number of studies including one published in “Bio-organic Medicinal Chemistry Letters” in 2001 and another in “Archives of Pharmacal Research” in 2008 which found that aloe extract activates the estrogen receptors as well as stimulates breast cell growth in test tube experiments by mimicking the effects of estrogen.

Another study published in the Journal of Jahrom University of Medical Sciences in 2013 found that aloe vera increased estrogen levels in rats and as a result concluded that aloe vera could have positive effects on the process of fertility.

Increased circulation – According to WebMD, when applied topically, aloe can improve blood circulation throughout the area that it is applied and is the reason why aloe speeds up the healing of a wound. This can be beneficial to breast growth as increased blood circulation means increased nutrients and oxygen to the breast area.

Amino acids – Aloe vera contains essential amino acids. Amino acids are the building blocks of the body and are important to growing bigger breasts naturally. We need to get amino acids through our diets since our bodies do not produce them. Drinking aloe vera juice can be a simple way of getting your dose of amino acids for the day.

Vitamins – Aloe vera is rich in vitamins including A, B vitamins, C and E as well as numerous minerals including copper, zinc, and potassium. These vitamins and minerals can help keep your body in tip-top shape which is needed for optimal breast growth.

Where to Buy Aloe Vera

The most common use for aloe vera is in gel form and used as a topical. Aloe vera gel can easily be found in most stores locally as well as online. Aloe vera in juice or beverage form has recently become popular and can be found in most grocery stores as well as health food stores and online. Aloe juice is common in Asian countries like South Korea so you may have luck finding it at your local Asian store or market.

A popular way to consume aloe is to either add aloe vera juice or fresh pieces of aloe to smoothies. Here is a smoothie recipe from PopSugar that details how to prepare fresh aloe for consumption.  And here is a recipe for a Pineapple-Aloe Cocktail from Vegetarian Times.

Fenugreek, hops, and red clover are herbs frequently used in natural breast enlargement but did you know that spices and herbs used in everyday cooking can also have benefits for breast growth?

Cumin

A spice with a distinct flavor and aroma, cumin is commonly used in Indian and Mexican cuisines. Cumin is a phytoestrogen and has been shown to contain genistein. Genistein, an isoflavone also found in soy, mimics human estrogen and binds to estrogen receptors to help develop and maintain female characteristics like breasts.

Studies have shown that cumin increases the number of mammary cells in laboratory animals. Though the effects on human breasts are unknown, humans tend to react similarly to laboratory animals. Dr. Duke mentioned cumin as an herb to try in the breast enlargement section of his book “The Green Pharmacy”.

Thyme

Thyme is a herb that is commonly found in Italian cooking. Used dried or fresh, it is added to many sauces and stews. Thyme is said to support the body’s natural production of progesterone and can be beneficial to those who are estrogen dominant. Thyme is available as an essential oil, extract, or in capsule form.

Oregano

Oregano is similar to thyme is many ways. Like thyme, this herb is often used in Italian cooking and also helps to increase progesterone levels. Oregano supplements are available as a capsule, extract and essential oil. Oregano oil is also available in capsule form.

Parsley

Parsley has a strong flavor and is generally used as a garnish though it can be used in cooking, either fresh or dried. Parsley is rich in Vitamin K as well as Vitamin C. As for NBE, parsley has one of the highest sources of flavones but unfortunately flavones have the weakest estrogenic effect of all phytoestrogens.

The more popular use of parsley in NBE is to counter the smell of fenugreek. For those that don’t know – fenugreek, when used over period of time, will cause you to smell like maple syrup. Some people don’t mind the smell while others find it annoying. Ingesting fresh or dried parsley is said to minimize the smell.

Parsley is also a mild emmenagogue and as a result, parsley tea is a simple method used by many to induce late periods. But before you try this method, please be sure that your period is indeed late and that the delay is not a result of pregnancy.

Turmeric

Turmeric is a spice commonly found in Indian cuisine, especially curry. It is also a popular supplement to take because of its many anti-aging and medicinal benefits as well as its high concentration of the antioxidant curcuminoid. As for NBE, tumeric is used for its hormone balancing properties as it is said to increase the body’s natural production of progesterone.

Sage

Sage is a herb that has a strong flavor and is a good source of vitamin A and vitamin K. Sage leaves, as well as sage oil, have an estrogenic effect and can be beneficial for those who have low estrogen levels. Sage is commonly used to relieve menopausal symptoms but research has shown that sage may also help to improve memory.

Sage tea is a popular option for many NBE’ers for balancing hormones. Another common use for sage tea besides balancing hormones is to treat excessive sweating.

Sesame seeds

Regularly used in Asian cuisine or sprinkled on foods as a garnish, sesame seeds (as well as sesame oil) are said to be a good source of lignans which help to balance hormones and remove excess estrogen from the body.

Sesame seeds are used for their hormone balancing effects in a process called seed cycling, which is used by women to regulate their menstrual cycle. As part of seed cycling, sesame seeds are taken during one’s luteal phase.

Sesame seed oil can be used for breast massage but do note that the smell of sesame seed oil is very strong.
