I'm a 32aa with little receptors so this is what I'm doing with the Greenbush liquid extracts... Days 1-5: 1/2 dropper of each 1x/day-- FG, SP, WY, FN Days 6-10: 1/2 dropper of each 2x/day-- FG, SP, WY, FN Days 11-15: 1/2 dropper of each 3x/day-- FG, SP, WY, FN Days 16-20: 1/2 dropper of each 4x/day-- FG, SP, WY, FN Each 1/2 dropper contains 500 mg of herb, so I believe this should be good for slowly ramping without stalling... if not, anybody please advise. I'm on Day 9 of my routine, but when I come to Days 16-20, this will put me at 2000 mg of each herb per day, which I think I will stay at depending on growth and "tingles, aches, & pains". My only concern is "Would it be better to take the herbs 4x/day as I plan, and make my body think it consistently has these herbs during the day?" or, "Should I double my third dose at night so my body can absorb more of them as I sleep?" I also do dry massages in the morning and at night... booby batter makes me break out on my chest.  |

I wonder the same thing because I take my first dose around 7 am, then around noon and then the last isnt until 10-11 at night! But I would be afraid that with pumping herbs in at a consistent rate and then sleeping for 8 hours before more herbs might not be any better than 10 hours during the day because I usually drink my tea in the middle of the 10 hour gap (which I cant do in my sleep!).

Okay, so now I am on Day 11 of my routine and I'm modifying it due to the migraines (& possibly mood swings) I get from the fenugreek.
My modifications are:
Days 11-15:
1/2 dropper of each-- FG, SP, WY, FN-- in the morning
1/2 dropper of each-- SP, WY, FN-- in the afternoon
1/2 dropper of each-- SP, WY, FN, & 1 full dropper-- FG-- in the evening
Days 16-20:
1/2 dropper of each-- SP, WY, FN, & 1 full dropper-- FG-- in the morning
1/2 dropper of each-- SP, WY, FN-- in the afternoon
1 full dropper of each-- FG, SP, WY, FN-- in the evening
I believe if I can gauge the fenugreek in the direction of my job and nighttime before I go to bed, then I'm not so moody and achy when I'm home with my family. I just don't want my family to suffer the repercussions of my migraines and mood swings while I'm on this endeavor.
... Well, that's my routine for now...

Okay, well now I'm switching my herbal brand to Nature's Way Capsules. Greenbush is just too expensive for me to keep up with every couple of months. I am now doing the following... I take: FG- 610 mg- 1/morning, 2/afternoon, 1/evening WY- 425 mg- 1/morning, 2/afternoon, 1/evening SP- 585 mg- 1/morning, 2/afternoon, 1/evening I took fennel completely out of my internal routine and now use it for massage with olive oil in the morning and at night. It seems to be firming up my breasts quite nicely!  |

Have you grown any since changing your routine from greenbush to individual herbs? I guess it would be too soon to tell - I just noticed the date you changed everything!
Let me know after you've been on them about a month. :-/Wahaika posted a great deal of information in my routine if you're interested.

I haven't noticed too much growth yet, as I am just getting over my period. Like everyone else, I lose the luteal swelling once it's all over. I am managing to keep what I've grown throughout the month, though. And I'm fitting this size 32A bra nicely. I just wish I could keep that darn swelling...
What's Goat's Rue?
I was thinking about adding Borage Oil to my routine. But I can't remember if it's used for massage or internally-- maybe both? I still have to read up on it.

Goat's rue is another herb like fenugreek, it's hard to find. You can take boarage oil internally or massage - I break open about 6 and add it to my olive oil mixture. I don't ake it internally but some girls do.
Why do you change your routine during the 2nd half of your cycle?

I didn't change my routine during the 2nd half of my cycle. I changed it a few days before my period... Nov. 1, to be exact. I had my period Nov. 5.
Do you notice any differences with the borage oil?

Littlelibrarian, were you referring to the entries I made in September? If you were, I had just started my routine in September. I was still ramping up and couldn't handle the migraines from the fenugreek and had to modify it.
As far as actually changing my routine, I still take the same types of herbs at the same times, but the only differences are the brand and the dosages of each herb. I tried not to stray too far from what I was doing with the Greenbush extracts. But I think I still may need to tweak my routine. I'll post my modifications once I figure out what I'm going to do.
