Last winter I was here, I went out and spent so much money on supplements. I was taking saw palmetto, black cohosh, and fennugreek. I was also doing breast massage every night and everyday. After 4 months I saw 0 results whatsoever or any changes in my body at all. I had spent a lot of money, I gave up on that routine. I was really discouraged. I have started taking Yasmin. I was hopeful that my breast might fill out a little from the Yasmin but again, 4 months later, NOTHING. No change. I've eve lost a little weight so I think they are smaller. My boyfriend and I were not together for a while, we saw other people, his relationship lasted longer than mine. We are getting back together now, and I found out that the girl he was with was as thin as me with C cups, while I am a little A that lack shape from breastfeeding. I feel more self consious than ever. I feel un-womanly and I can't even look at myself naked anymore without getting depressed.
What could I try that is more likely to have some results? Could I use pueraria mirifica while I'm on Yasmin??
My boyfriend told me if I got implants which I cant afford anyway he would not like it at all.....But he hasn't even said anything positive about my breasts. I think he almost wants me to find some magic way to get them back to what they were when I was breatfeeeding (breastfed for 2 years had B cups the whole time). Any advice is appreciated, I'm confused about what works and what doesnt really. Thanks.

Have you looked into incorporating the Noogleberry into your routine? I think most of the women here have had the best results when they combine 2 or more of the NBE methods for their personal programs. Personally I think if sp, black cohosh and fg were the only things you were taking, you could be doing a whole lot more considering the fact that many of them take those types of herbs as a compliment to PM or BO. Since you're not responding well to those herbs and massage, I would up the ante and maybe add some PM breast enhancing cream to those massages, and a NB...(?).
First your boyfriend must have gotten back together for a more important reason than breasts and you shouldn't feel so bad. Second try to get to at least 115 lbs. as being underweight prevents much of anything from working for most people. Besides that the quantity of herbs might have mattered; I think 1500 mg is bare minimum for fenugreek and even that low amount might be too slow to show anything in only 4 months. It's unknown precisely what effect NBE has on birth control, but nobody here on the pill ever seems to have any trouble. Other options to look into besides fenugreek, saw palmetto and PM include something to increase progesterone like vitex or dong quai, something for connective tissue (like MSM, collagen, or etc.) and omega 3s like flax oil or chia seeds. Find out if you're estrogen dominant and if so lay off the PM until you get your progesterone up first.
Thanks so much for the replies, I did realize as I read it that my attempt sounds pathetic and minimal lol, even though to me it felt like I had been doing so much. I have recently gotten my hormone levels checked, because of stress related hair loss, and my doctor said that my hormone levels are normal. I Am very little, in every way. I am 105-110 lbs (I go between them all the time) and the most I have been was 120 ( I ate constantly just to reach it! Hard to keep up.) My wrists and my hands are veryy small and petite, although I am 5'6. What is frustrating is that my bum is not flat at all, It is the largest part of my body lol, so why doesnt my body put fat in my boobs as well? lol. But it is hard to grab any fat anywhere else, and I think thats why my breast are so small. I am a little bigger than A 34 but do not fill B cups. If I do gain weight, while using PM cream, Do you guys think that would give me results? I looked it up, it's VERY exspensive! If I did use it and got results, are they permanant? Will they go away once I stop using the cream? Will I be dishing out hundreds, thousands of dollars for upkeep? The website of the cream says no, but they are selling something.
Usually maintenance amounts are much smaller than amounts in normal programs.
www.ainterol.us has 200 grams PM for $20, enough to last 6-12 months. Extracts are a little more and can be added to your own creams. Also check the PM section of the forums.
www.mountainroseherbs.com sells herb powders for only a few bucks a
pound.
www.shamanshop.com has a good deal on extracts, but you have to buy them by the kilogram (and at 4:1, that's effectively 4,000 grams). Fenugreek extract smells if used externally, but the advantage is that it has no fiber. The slimy fiber in the whole powder can upset your stomach until you're used to it.
www.greenbush.net has pre-assembled kits that are more expensive than those two but much cheaper than pre-mixed supplements found elsewhere.
The other things I listed, including saw palmetto and fengreek, combine well with PM. As does wild yam, meaning the greenbush kit is ok. The only thing to avoid would be other weaker true phytoestrogens since they compete with PM: hops, whole flax (oil is ok), soy and red clover are some examples. Or if the PM is too strong you can switch to one of those instead.
I have also same problem two years ago then my doctor give me different vitamins supplements and breast increasing medicine now i have really beautiful shape and size.
