@lovely11 Interesting. Especially since I've suspected estrogen dominance and took progesterone cream in the past since I use to have pmdd that it helped but I didn't notice any increase in my hips, but maybe if I take something that raises prolactin with it during the luteal phase with yoga poses that spread the hips it will spread my hips some. It's worth a try right? So with the exception of pregnancy (which is out of the question at the moment) the only things I could try are things like progesterone cream and prolactins combined with yoga poses for actual hip spreading right?

To a certain extent but the hips increase with pregnancy because of the hormone relaxin so I was wondering if I could find a way to recreate that if I could create the right hormonal stage to widen my hips

As I was implying and further more: Prolactin herbs (which are typically breastfeeding herbs), plus fenugreek (a progesterone herb) keep the temporary organ (Corpus Luteum) around that creates progesterone and relaxin, which extends the luteal phase. It is normal for the luteal phase to vary by an extension of 7 days. Missing 1 period once in a while might be fine, but try not to miss two. Pregnancy or breastfeeding are also situations where there are missing periods. Pregnancy in itself isn't necessary.

Estrogen Dominance would be an apparent during menstruation, by excessive or heavy periods.

Be careful with Yoga, it is easy to get too eager to do something, then overdo an exercise and get hurt.

I do have excessive heavy periods. I have both Endometriosis and PMDD issues but progesterone cream helped the pmdd issues. I have very heavy 7 day long periods with very very awful cramps (I'm talking I use a 40 pack of super plus tampons every period.)

Yeah, I would def. be careful thanks for the heads up though.
