Concerns about Breast Size/How to get bigger breasts

Advertisement


Question
QUESTION: I may be like a lot of girls who have smaller breasts and feel really awkward about it all. The biggest issue for me is how different my body is. I am about 5'8, 120lbs. So, tall and skinny. I find dresses that fit just right everywhere but my breasts. I love dresses hugging all the right places and then my breasts not working with that dress just irritates me.

With bras, I can't seem to find the right one for me. I am 20 and an A cup. It's almost impossible to find my size in a regular store, and when I do find one, a lot of the time it just doesn't feel right. I go to Victoria Secret or places like that specializing in all sizes, but still a lot of the time nothing feels just right.

Other than plastic surgery, is there any way to make my breasts bigger? I'd love a natural way of doing it.

My boyfriend is so nice about it, and has told me I am perfect in every way and has encouraged me a ton, he even helps me shop so I don't get frustrated and just leave, but as wonderful as he is, I know he can see how I just wish they could get bigger!!

I just don't feel right and I'd kill just to be a B or even a high A. Is that so wrong?

Please, help!!!

ANSWER: Courtney, I understand your frustration with your breasts.  Many of us love small breasts on a young woman, but I hear what you are saying and I know you want to be able to fill your bra cups and fill out your dresses.    HOnestly there is no magic bullet, but some herbal suplements like saw palmetto and fenugreek have helped some women to get their breasts to be somewhat larger.

 Some women have added herbal tinctures to jojoba oil or a similar oil and apply that to the breasts once or twice a day.  It is necessary to massage your breasts with it and rub it in for at least 30 minutes when you appy it.  Are your nipples and arioli small or large?  Compare them to a quarter coin(arioli) and to a pencil eraser(nipples).

QUESTION: Thank you for getting back to me, that seems like it could work. But I'll check into them and see what could be right for me!

My nipples really aren't big or small, kinda mid-sized really I guess. They are not real big, but not unbelievably small. So, I really don't know how to answer that. I even did the tests you mentioned, that's how I got the result.

ANSWER: Have you ever had your hormones checked?   Are there any other signs of low or unbalanced hormones?  Are you able to reach orgasm?  HOw often do you have a release that leaves you feeling satisfied?

QUESTION: I don't think I have, but well, I may have had a check last year. Actually, last year I was in a wreck that left me with a TBI. I am better now, can walk, talk, etc. I didn't have to get surgery, thank God! But, I was in a coma for a few weeks. Medically induced I was told.

I woke up from it, lost about, eh, 30lbs. Gained most of it back, but even still I didn't have much larger breasts. Before my wreck, they were still small. That TBI, I know messed with hormones some. Because I got acne and junk like that which I never had growing up. Well, at least none that bad. I could just wash my face and I stayed clear. Hardly even wore make up actually.

That all is better now really. But I could have had a hormone check while at the hospital in the coma or maybe I did sometime after while in my 3 months there. IDK really, hard to remember that time. Guess my brain doesn't want me to remember every detail of it. lol.

As far as orgasms go. I do have good one's. I really only cum when my boyfriend and I do stuff. I mean, I get a little wet when he just kisses me for a few minutes, so obviously somethin is workin right, lol.

I usually cum a lot when he does stuff, and am pretty darn satisfied. I never really squirt out a ton like some girls, it just kinda falls out I guess. A bit weird possibly?

IDK, but usually I don't ever have to ask my BF if he can do something. We usually just do stuff cause we love each other and like doing it. It's never about how I NEED to have sex or something. Ya know?

You think low hormones or something led to me having smaller breasts??? And aren't there hormonal supplements or something if that would help. What about Estrogen pills?

What kind of unbalances should I look for in hormonal stuff btw? I just would like to know that especially, cause maybe there is a sign or two. I just don't know what to look for really.

Answer
Some signs of unbalanced hormones are inability to orgasm, or lack of sexual desire.  I think you are fine there.  Do you have regular periods?  Do you get irratable before you start your period?  Do you feel up most days?  

You really should see a dr if you suspect hormone deficiency or imbalance.  Estrogen, progesterone should be prescribed only by your dr.  Tests are available to determine your hormone levels.  

Keep in mind that all women are different in their sexual response   The way you cum is just fine as long as it leaves you feeling satisfied.  I wouldnt have any problem with a woman who does what you described.

I can speak to the issues related to acceptance by others. Many women have the mistaken opinion that small breasts are not acceptable. If your desire is to increase the size of your breasts, I can discuss that and hopefully give helpful suggestions.

Experience

I have done a great deal of research in herbal remedies, and have been involved in a few cases of encouraging and helping women to happily accept the body they have, including one who chose to try natural enhancement.
