I finally found an overview of growth factors needed in NBE. It's figure 4 in this publication:

The text gradually builds up to the complexity of the figure. Worth reading. Prolactin is involved in a third step in mammogenesis, after the estrogens and progesterone have done their parts of the job. IGF-1 is important during the phase controlled by the estrogens, and during the third phase, pregnancy, IGF-2 becomes important. What makes pregnant women big is not estriol, but a growth factor of the fetus.
I'm still in the first phase, which is controlled by estrogens and IGF-1. In this phase, phyto-estrogens and L-arginine (for HGH and IGF-1) are useful. The use of placenta supplements is clearly something I should consider further down the NBE path. The whole point of the article is that each hormone and each growth factor fulfills a specific role in a specific phase of development. Maybe without knowing it, the authors have created a very useful NBE road map
