I looked briefly at the flat to fem websites and it struck me that it is probably a scam. 2 cup sizes in a few months?????????????? If this was true it would be far more widely known and teenage girls would all be using it.

However when I thought about how much attention had been given to the website itself, it struck me that they must think there is a potential pool of users (victims) large enough to make this whole effort worthwhile. And that, I thought, was very interesting. Because it wasn't targeted towards women, but at men.

There are some medications that can cause breast growth. I have experienced testosterone replacement over a period of about 5 years, and the use of saw palmetto, but as to which one was the most efficient, probable the TRT and the breast growth was just a side effect, which I really did not mind Cheer Cheer

Wait, was it the replacement or the saw palmetto that cased breast growth? I've never heard that about saw palmetto.

Lily, Saw Palmetto, is a herb, available in capsule form at supermarkets, and chemists shops. It is used to help with prostate problems. If you look up "Prostate" on the "Mayo Clinic" website it mention Saw Palmetto, as a possible alternative to some other medications, but it does also list breast growth (gyno) as a possible side effect.
Testosterone replacement therapy can also have the side effect of growing breasts, in my experience it was probably the TRT which was the most instrumental with my breast growth Smile Smile

I used Saw Palmetto and Fenugreek for about six months and found a small difference in my breast shape. I'm about a 40b anyway so sizing depends on what bra I buy. I found the Fenugreek stinks to high heaven, it seems to come thru your skin. It is used in making spicy foods so I suppose I should have expected that, but my bed smelled like a curry house so I stopped taking it. I have noticed a massive increase in the sensitivity of my nipples, so that's a big bonus. Anyway, if you can stand the pong then I would recommend using both these products.

Have you had a genetic Karyotype run? If T had that effect on you, you may be mildly androgen insensitive (MAIS). In males who have that intersex condition, androgenic material will often be converted to estrogen to fit into the receptors. People who are complete AIS (CAIS) have a female exterior body and have nearly all testosterone produced turned to estrogen by their receptors. Partial AIS have some masculine and some feminine aspects, and benefit as males from only part of the testosterone produced. Mild AIS folks vary in response but may find secondary sex characteristics enhanced.

Carolynn, I have not used any TRT for about 5 years, still take 2 saw palmetto capsules (1600mg) at day (1Am & 1 Pm with meal), mainly for prostate problems.
I am not aware of any breast improvement with the Saw Palmetto.
When I had my Testosterone levels checked about 12 months ago the reading was 15 (What evers) and the Endocrinologist said that it is in the middle - Low readings are 5 ? & high readings are 25 ?
So I really don't where I am, except that I enjoying living as a female as I can safety get away with.

Sorry to put all this boring garbage hear, if some can workout where I am am coming from "Beaut"
