Hi everyone! Just stumbled on this board via Google & glad I did. I've been off and on since Dec '03 and not really on any routine. I tried SBS for a month, didn't follow the rules. Then i did my own herbs by taking 3000mg of Fenugreek and Fennel Seed. Did away with the Fennel and added 2000mg of Saw Palmetto. Didn't get any results only felt tingling the week before my cycle. Like most women, I was a full 34B/C depending on the time of the month, I breast fed both my babies and deflated after that!!! Now i'm a 34A just want my old pre-kids size again. Well, here's my stats: 30years old 5'2" approx 115 lbs nurturer O+ (i think) not sure what nurturer means or does for me. I was thinking of starting BO. However, i did see a post from Fawn that nurturer respond to herbs better. Need lots of help and info. Anything & everything is helpful at this point!!! ;D Thanks and I look forward to any help and info!!! isle

Nuturer's have shown to do well on either form of BE, herbal or BO. The fact that you had tingles, is quite a good sign. What's important is the length of time since you have breast fed, it does take a while for the glands that produced milk to go back into shape. Progesterone cream may aid in a quicker recovery for glands, however, is not for the most part BE friendly, it does however rebuild the glands, allowing fat to store behind them. 3g fenugreek is quite strong, you may have OD'ed on phyto-estrogens, which just clogs the receptors. You may want to look at fenugreek, fennel, wild yam, and SP for a routine. Look at routines, see if someone matches your "profile", and try their routine. That's my 2 cents-cha-ching! Again, welcome to the board!

Thanks Momi!
I think i'm gonna do a liver cleansing first then maybe try EPO. I still have some SP left maybe i'll do both at the same time. Does that sound like a working combo? I'm still reading up on this stuff & trying to absorb & understand a lot of this!!
Thanks again for your input!!
