Thank you for sharing this! I have been taking PM for 3 months now with excellent results, but recently heard that high levels of estrogen can cause cancer. I'm glad this is not true of PM.

Hi big brains,

I am just starting my NBE journey and I need a little advice on when to take PM?  I am waiting til I get my period.  When I saw that you are getting such good results, I was hoping you could tell me how often you take PM?

Thanks

Hi Molly! 

Sorry I took so long to reply! I haven't had access to my computer due to moving. 

I started taking one pill a day and slowly (after 2-3 weeks) increased to 2 a day, and after a month of that increased to 4 pills, 2 in the morning and 2 at night. I take them with calcium to help with absorption. 

I usually put on the serum first, 4-6 drops/breast, massage till absorbed, then put on the cream. That takes a bit longer to absorb, so I do my massages until its tacky.

I loved the Purafem products, but had several bad experiences with order mixups and customer service taking MONTHS to fix them. I've since switched to Ainterol, which seems to be working just as well. I haven't had any growth past 32dd, but I also have decreased back down to only taking 2 pills a day (move and career transition make it really difficult to be consistent with medication!) 

One important thing to note is that I keep track of my cycle with an app, and when it's almost time for my period I go down to 2 pills/day for a week, and then resume the 4 pills/day. There are hormones in PM that affect your cycle similar to birth control, so at a higher dose of 4 pills/day you'll skip your period if you don't decrease the dose once a month. 
P.S. DON'T depend on PM as birth control!

That is so smart to drop the dose! Thanks for sharing. Do experience irregularities in your cycle like this bb? And are there other things you taking working out for you?
