Thanks so much for the advice!
So you don't think I should supplement fenugreek at all, or just strictly in my follicle phase?
What about progesterone cream?
I have read online that progesterone cream halts breast growth, and also that it promotes it...its so hard to really tell what to do!
I have saw palmetto coming in the mail today so I will start with that and the Maca.
Maca or fenugreek has given me horrible acne, all over my body well not that bad but a few here and there which is abnormal for me....could I have overdone the pills or is this a further sign of estrogen dominance or testosterone...i think saw palmetto will help with this?
You're very welcome!
I think maybe I would just wait on the fenugreek and see if you get results in the next few months without it. Either fenugreek or the maca could potentially cause the acne.. I would guess that the best way to figure out which one is to quit both for several days/few weeks then add just one back in. Wait and see if the acne comes back or not, and then test the other one the same way, if that makes sense. I personally have gotten good results with saw palmetto for the acne. Also saw palmetto can indirectly contribute to breast growth since it's blocking the negative effects of the testosterone.
For progesterone cream, I'm not sure if I'm knowledgeable enough to give you advice about it, although coincidentally I have just started using a small amount of it myself. I'm only using a small dab for about six days during my luteal phase.. but like I said, I've just started with it so I will update you if I notice positive changes! I sure hope I will, lol! But I do know that more is not better when it comes to progesterone cream. You can easily overdo it if not careful.
I think you could have a good starting program with consistent massage, saw palmetto, and maca, if it turns out that's not causing the acne. You could also consider a collagen supplement like this https://www.amazon.com/Great-Lakes-Gelatin-Collagen-Hydrolysate/dp/B005KG7EDU/ref=sr_1_1_a_it?ie=UTF8&qid=1473347414&sr=8-1&keywords=great+lakes+collagen+hydrolysate Great Lakes Collagen Hydrolysate (that's the one I use) . It's good for firming and plumping the breast tissue and great for the skin, hair, nails, and digestive system too.
