Natural Breast Enlargement Supplements
Filed Under Dr. Zoltan Rona (MD) |
Some women have been asking me if there are nutritional supplements that can increase breast size. Are these safe? How effective are they?
Breast size is determined primarily by heredity and estrogen activity. The herbal/botanical products currently on the market basically boost the effects of estrogen and theoretically could increase breast size. If they really did that, they would also increase body fat percentage, weight, and perhaps the size of existing tumors in the body, whether benign or malignant. When estrogen gets boosted in the body, it does not necessarily only stimulate the breasts but may, in fact, stimulate cells in the uterus, the ovaries and the fat cells.
No effect of such supplements has ever been proven, so, at this time, all I could advise is buyer beware. Some studies are definitely needed here. I am sure there are plenty of researchers that would be interested in doing double-blind placebo-controlled studies on the differences they measure in breast size over a number of months.
