So, still for sake of size, I'll add this. When I lost my breast milk and relactated for my son, I did the Newman Goldfarb Protocol (but I only did the accelerated protocol for sake of time). The Newman Goldfarb Protocol is for women wanting to induce lactation, and even for women who've never had a baby who are adopting and want to breastfeed their adopted baby.

Now, if you're not wanting to lactate, dont follow the protocols from beginning to end. I'm just sharing this so you can see how they mimic pregnancy hormones without you bring pregnant, in order to prepare your breasts for lactation (aka grow your breast tissue and ducts).

*Disclaimer: I am not telling anyone to use this protocol for breast enlargment, I'm just showing how slightly mimicking hormone levels during pregnancy will grow your breasts. I do not know if following this protocol for the full duration and then not pumping will result in mastitis and engorgement and all of that. So don't attack me, I said it. Lol. But, it IS interesting to see the levels of progesterone and estrogen in this protocol. Pretty much opposite of what some people on here do.

This is also just for a time frame of between 2 and 9 months. I do not suggest you do this for longer!

The 3 things they address are Progesterone, Estrogen and Prolactin. For the Progesterone and Estrogen, they advise using a birth control that has 3 times the amount of progesterone than Estrogen (3:1 ratio is best). They also discuss a bit on how to do this without birth control. But they continuously say that the progesterone levels should be 3 times higher than estrogen for the best results. For the prolactin, they encourage taking Domperidone. Many lactating women have used this drug, but I strongly suggest that instead of Domperidone, you should take Shatavari, which also raises prolactin levels. And the reason I say that is because Domperidone is a pharmaceutical drug that slows QT intervals. Yikes. Shatavari is in the asparagus family & it's natural. They also suggest using fenugreek & blessed thistle together. See the Dr's website for more info: http://www.asklenore.info/breastfeeding/induced_lactation/protocols4print.shtml

The end of the protocols call for stoping the progesterone and estrogen and continuing the domperidone (or Shatavari). This step is what mimics the hormonal changes that take place during birth and what triggers lactation.
