Well hello all! My name is Heather, I'm a long time lurker of the NBE forums, and thought it finally time to introduce myself.
I'm (I think) a somewhat complicated boobie case. I'm currently 25 years old, about 5'5, 135ish lbs. My bra size is currently a 34B, but it's really the shape of my breasts that bothers me. They're tubular / underdeveloped (same thing, right?), and very different shapes from one another. The shape is that.. my right boobie is more normal, but the left one has no 'underboob' at all.. ie tubular. They're both 'snoopie-boobies' though. Sigh!
I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was 16 (..we figured there was a problem when I hadn't gotten my period at this point..), and have been on BC pills ever since to get my period to come. So I'm currently still taking Microgestin FE and get at least a light period every month now.. better than nothing I suppose.
My interest in NBE came as a result of incredible stress after making the decision to get breast implants. I've always been embarassed of my misshaped tubular breasts (I'm sure I don't have to explain this embarassment to y'all), and had decided to get them 'fixed'. I paid the $500 deposit to book the surgery and everything.
Then, after a lot of sleepless nights stressing about the surgery, spontaneous crying fits due to battling the decision, and a lot of soul-searching to wether I could have plastic surgery or not.. I knew I couldn't go through with it. Long story short.. that's how I found out about NBE. I'm a big believer in herbal remedies, and treating your body right and it will take care of itself back. I'm very excited to get started, get to know you fine people more, and get / give support as much as possible. This forum has a great community IMO
So.. here's my program and reasons for each part, that I think I'm going to follow to help my boobieness:
1. PM pills - first 15 days of cycle
- I was worried I was estrogen-dominant due to the PCOS, but after a basic hormone test, my estrogen came out low! ( 82 pg/ml to be specific ) So hopefully this will help with that.
2. Saw Palmetto pills - every day
- I have hirsutism from my PCOS.. I get extra hair growth around chin, nipples, and belly button areas. This leads me to believe I need an anti-androgen.. and my testosterone is a little on the high side.. hence the decision for this choice.
3. Noogleberry - every day
- I haven't ordered this yet, but I'm seriously considering it. Especially after seeing Anastasia's case and swearing that Noogleberry is what helped with the tubular-ness, I think this may be necessary in my program to get good results.
4. Progesterone Cream / pills of some sort (???)
- Still haven't decided if this is a good idea or not (thoughts?), but I was thinking of adding PG cream.. from what I've read I understand that it's good to up progesterone on PM off days, i.e. days 16-28 of cycle. Thoughts anyone?
Ok this post has gotten way too long. Glad to meet you fine folk and I'll post pictures (if i can bring myself to do it!), and measurements and whatnots soon!
