Hey Girly, yes the saw palmetto did seems to make my thighs get a lil thicker but didn't seem to do much for my flat backside LOL, but I think if I woulda stuck with it longer, combined with the Vitex and Fenugreek, it would have seen a change in my backside. I didn't give the herbs time to balance out my hormones. This time I'm gonna take them 4 at least 7 months! |
You aren't taking any phytoestrogenz. There are two wayz to grow your butt, through fat or through muscle. The only hormone you need for gaining fat in your butt is estrogen. There is only fat and muscle on your butt. Prolacin herbz are used for breast growth because they expand breast tissue. Progesterone balances estrogen, it makez estrogen weaker if U have excess estrogen and progesterone growz your boobz as well. Taking progesterone weakenz da strong phytoestrogenz you need to gain fat on your butt so progesterone is not needed during butt fat storage. Prolactin is not needed because it does not effect da fat on your butt at all. So dat leavez estrogen only. DHEA and testosterone help build muscle on your butt. You need a healthy amount of testosterone and balanced hormonez to get good butt muscle growth but you need higher than normal estrogen to store fat on your butt so they are counter-productive.
Phytoestrogens
Plant estrogens. They bind to estrogen receptorz in da body to activate them
Phytoprogestins
Plant progesterone. In breast enhancement they grow da milk glandz and alveolas. They are used to balance estrogen and progesterone
Aromatase
Aromatase is a plant enzyme dat digestz and transforms testosterone into estrogen
Androgens
These are testosteronez
DHEA
Da body makez estrogen or testosterone out of DHEA
Prolactin
A hormone dat causez milk production and swellin in da breastz. Constant swelling causes growth due to tissuez bein stretched.
Adaptogen
An herb dat producez DHEA in da adrenal glandz
Dis is what U are takin
Saw Palmetto - anti-androgen and possibly anti-estrogen
Vitex - phytoprogestin (progesterone)
Fenugreek - Very weak phytoestrogen (it'z not usually used as da main source of phytoestrogenz) a phytoprogestin and prolactin
So U are takin stuff dat does not have estrogen in it or DHEA. Da herbz U are takin are for balancin before U start body typez goalz or stuff to grow your boobz but not your butt.
What I suggest
You are approachin wit there herbz like U want to grow your breastz. Saw Palmetto's only side effect is hip/thigh growth but not butt growth.
-1st If you have any weight to lose like from your stomach or armz lose dat first Why:
here-2nd Balance your hormonez if you need to, how/why/info:
here-3rd Take a strong phytoestrogen like pueraria mirifica or agauje and also rub da same herb on your butt to make sure dat da phytoestrogenz go there instead of your boobz.
Saw Palmetto is for thighz/hipz and for blocking testosterone (but if your hormonez are balanced already U won't need it) Fenugreek increasez swelling in da boobz and increasez progesterone in da body (but dat blockz da estrogen U need to store fat in your butt) and vitex is for balancin only
There is an exception to da rule, if U are estrogen dominant or have excess estrogen sometimez progesterone will give U growth because now U have da right amount of both. Takin an anti-androgen while estrogen dominant or with excess estrogen is dangerous or takin a strong phytoestrogen while estrogen dominant is also dangerous to your health
Hope dat answerz your questionz if not, ask again
