Hi Sara, I was also wondering what I should be taking in those weeks between ovulation and period when I take a break from PM pills. I figured out during these weeks I should take supplements which work on raising progesterone. For example, progesterone cream, vitex, placenta, so on. I read on many sites that this is the way to go - increase estrogen in follicular phase and progesterone in luteal phase. Both estrogen and progesterone are equally important for breast development. Progesterone cream (or other supplements) will also increase receptors' sensitivity to estrogen. So whren you start PM in the new cycle it will act more effective.
