Title: Bustline peaks?
Post by: LittleAlice on March 15, 2009, 11:58:32 PM
So, I have heard mixed things but this question goes out to those who have been on hormones a long time: about how long into hormone replacement therapy until you breast development peaked?

2 to 7 years is the general time.

I have heard the timelines but they are all generalizations. I was looking for a personal experience answer.

Personal experiences vary greatly.  Most doctors don't recommend anyone getting BA before 2 years however so, I'd go with 2 years.

I am at 11 months and still have growth.  I am waiting for the full two years before making any kind of decision on a BA.

I was on Premarin a whole bunch of years ago. Got up to a "B" in less than 6-months and then quite taking anything estrogen-related for over 20 years while the B boobs stayed like they were only less sensitive. This was a medical intervention for male-pattern migraines which were cured in a very short time.

I recently (about a year ago now) went on progynova for my prostate, osteoporosis and bone problems and almost instantly shot up to a really full B and right now am going for a small C, but REALLY REALLY FULL! 

The soreness in them right now likely means I'll get some more decent growth. I'm bubbling out of all my B+ bras. My mom was just a B. :O

Anecdotally - I cannot recommend my regimen - but it worked for me, but then again, I am not trying to pass.

I have a question about your Osteoporosis and headaches (I am currently suffering both), would you be available for a chat on this topic?

I haven't started hormones yet, but since it takes young teenage girls several years to go through puberty while their breasts continue to grow, it makes sense that it could take awhile for us.
