okay with that, my plan!
Chart based off the hormone levels in the body during a womens cycle.
During Days 1-7 [when a woman is on her menses] the hormones are leveled and balanced [for the most part].
Days 8-15 estrogen levels in the body begin to rise
Days 16-22 progesterone levels in the body begin to rise
Days 23-30 hormone levels begin to drop in preparation of the menses
Since my hormones tend to want to fluctuate when they wish and I don't follow a good cycle ATM-- I will have to wing it, since I always seem to know when I ovulate.
These are some of the herbs I'd like to try, to start out with:
BCP-- if my doctor tells me so. I'll use this alone.
removal of my cyst.
finding out whats wrong with my body via cyst, via endocrinologist, my doctor or maybe an herbalist.
my own program if I choose to say fxxk science and go my own way
During estrogen (when I seem to notice my chest is at its lowers measurments)
PM,
maca (wont be cycling, probably)
Fenugreek,
goatsrue,
fennel,
msm for collagen,
Flaxseed Oil / maybe mix it with
fenugreek extract!
multi vitamin (wont cycle),
Alfalfa,
L-Arginine (blood circulation),
marshmellow root.
during progesterone (when I notice how huge they get!):
Topical:
PC cream
maybe

Use palmers coacoa butter with collagen lotion! This is my new favorite lotion for my body and I swear I have never felt so smooth, and my breast get really heavy after I use it to massage them, I am thinking maybe its the vitamin E and collagen? I dont know! but its awesome ^^
I am following advice from surferjoe 
You'll want to match the cycle rather than trying to counterbalance it, to avoid disrupting the cycle. Though some people with bad imbalances may counter the peaks a little. Most of those herbs can be used all month because they are too mild or too balancing to affect the cycle much. PM should be matched with estrogen in the cycle since it strongly mimics estrogen, while PC with progesterone. Fenugreek, goat's rue and wild yam are similar and redundant yes, but it doesn't hurt to use multiple. Also note that many successful programs use quite a lot, some directly, and some because they used multiple and it all adds up. Often 1 to 2 tablespoons. They are not for prolactin only; rather they seem to adapt to all hormones and tend to be balancing even in large amounts. PM, flax and alfalfa are phytoestrogens so they're a bit redundant too, and instead of adding the others tend to get in the way of the stronger PM. Flax oil also provides ALA fatty acids and if you make sure it has no added lignans then the phytoestrogens in it may be minimal. Whole flax seeds always have lignans. MSM is redundant with gelatin. MSM builds collagen, so you need less, around 3,000 mg. Gelatin *is* collagen so you need way more. Thus MSM is easier.
Also note that most BCP is high estrogen, even if it has a little progestin. That means even more phytoestrogens may not be a good idea.
Most of the herbs listed may also be used topically. PM is an exception because when it goes to the liver first it gets converted into a stronger form. So PM may still be used topically, but it is weaker this way.
