Hi I'm Andrea. I've been lurking for a couple days and decided to make an account.
I am in search for a more feminine body. I am tall and thin female, 34a with no hips (but im still looking to fill out my behind). Bummer. I take BC pills, never been pregnant. I have previously asked my doctor about my hormone levels, and she said everything seems to be where they should. I am looking for weight gain in general, but perhaps herbs will help with my shape a bit.
I feel like I should take an anti androgen and a phytoestrogen. I also want to look into maca.
I need direction, please. Any threads you can link me to or opinons you can give me would be lovely. Thank you in advance.

Welcome Andrea,
It's hard to tell from little information: are you high in progesterone? There are two links to help you find out here:

The latest post in my program thread is mostly about exercise and waist slimming. I posted on a boobie diet recently too.
Happy growing

Thank you for the reply Isabelle.
On the progesterone list, I do not have any symptoms listed. On Lee's test, the four or so boxes I did check all indicate I have a estrogen deficiency, which is the opposite of where I want to be right now. I've read the Estrogen Dominance/Deficiency thread and it also confirms that.
I am on the young side (mid 20's) and taking birth control, so that leads me to believe that the estrogen I do have might be more potent then lets say, flaxseed. Would you recommend for a phytoestrogen, if one at all. TIA.
Now I'm on to reading the last couple or so pages of your thread. It's huge! Lol

Hi AndreaMichelle,
I prefer hops as a phyto-estrogen, but I take it at night because it makes me sleepy. And I balance it with maca, because without maca, I get depressed on hops.
PM lengthens cycles. On bcp, Run.Rabbit found a schedule that works. For a natural cycle, only Susan (beachbumbythesea) got two of the same length so far, but they were 36 days.
There are other phyto-estrogens: yellow dock and sheep sorrel are phyto-estrogen only. GNC carry a yellow dock tincture. Panax ginseng is estriol only, so it must be taken with 1-4 hour intervals, or topically, because estriol metabolizes fast. Red clover is 50/50 phyto-estrogen/phyto-progestin. Licorice is both phyto-estrogen and phyto-progestin too, and anti-androgen, and it increases prolactin. It's a complete program all by itself, but as soon as you need to tweak it, you need another herb.
