Hey everyone!! I'm new...so first I'll tell you a bit about myself. I'm 20, f, in college and have been looking at BE for a long time but just found this site. I never knew about herbal BE until a month ago so I'm going to try it. I'm a 34A...but probably a lot smaller than that. And trust me, eventhough I'm 20, I've stopped growing like 6 years ago  First off, I need help!! What to take, how much to take etc I bought some Fenugreek pills the other day. They are 620 mg a pill I think. I haven't started with them yet though. What is a good plan to start with? I'm on birthcontrol pills, Mircette to be exact, but I've heard from many people it is still okay to take herbal pills w/ bc. Can someone please give me some suggestions to start off light for me? I really would appreciate it!!! Plus remember I'm a college student so I'm not exactly rich  Thanks for all your help!!! |

[glow=red,2,300]Welcome to the Board![/glow] Well, you have a good start with fenugreek! Just a few other herbs will be needed, Saw Palmetto-about $8.00 for 100 caps at Walmart, Red Clover-about $7.00 health food store. Fenugreek should be started slowly, start with 1 pill daily. See how you react to make sure you have no allergies to it. You can start Red Clover a few days after again for allergy check. And finally SP. It's a shame the fenugreek is so high in mg, it is usually recommended to start at 1g a day, just 2 pills will put you over that!  An important part of BE is to try to keep the supplements in your system all day/night. So 3x daily is recommended. So...I guess you will have to go up to over 1.8g daily...match your Red Clover to the fenugreek dosage as much as possible. Do a search on R/C on this board, it is proving to be very beneficial in a BE quest.  SP 2-3g of SP daily. Remember take your supplements on an "empty" tummy. When and if you can afford it, you can make your own "boobie batter", with extracts. Until then...massage! Massage, massage, massage. Even if it's for a few seconds throughout the day. Massaging is also important for BE. It promotes prolactin, which helps build fat. Which is what we are striving for with BE. I hope that helps get ya' started! ;D for a low price! Have a look around and ask AWAY! Again Welcome to the Board! And Happy Growin' |

Momi's told u all the great basics for an herbal regime.
So's I'll just recommend sites for buying for cheaper.
You'll need dry herbs and extracts for massage. Go to Fawn's site [ftp]www.botanicalbeautylab.com[/ftp]..great for bulk ordering. You can either make ur own extracts (kinda tricky..takes thinking, good scale, and time) and is cheaper...or u can go to your local health food store, like Vitamin World (great sales on Monday) or online to [ftp]www.vitacost.com[/ftp] and [ftp]www.betterlife.com[/ftp].
To dry massage..kinda pull on ur breast like a baby is pulling on it. Do massage with boobie batter. Some that Momi and I use..can be found in the 'Routines' section.
Good luck!

Girlie-
There are several ladies, including myself, who are on BC, and have not had 'interference' so far. If there's some scientific finding that supports this..let us know, but in the meanwhile...there's no reason to suspect that it would.
