There are many herbal based, natural breast enhancement products on the market. For the most part, these are designed to work with the natural processes of the body. As such, having an understanding of how breasts develop and how herbal supplements can help stimulate growth is a great place to start.
Breast Enhancement Basics: How The Breasts Develop
Breast tissue grows when specific hormones interact. These hormones include estrogen, progesterone, prostaglandins, prolactin and human growth hormones. All these hormones need to be in balance within the body for breast development to take place properly through the different stages.
Below we look at how the different hormones work:
– Estrogen
Estrogen is released in the early stages of the childhood development is released in small amounts. After puberty, this secretion is increased by 200% (20 times or more). This is expected as this is the time during which a girl moves into womanhood and her sexual organs begin to develop and mature. The release of estrogen causes an increase in the fat stores of the breast, as well as the development and growth of the stromal tissues and ductile system.
– Progesterone And Prolacin
After puberty hits, progesterone and prolactin production (like estrogen) increases significantly. Both these hormones control the growth of the breast alveoli and lobules. In promoting the developments of the alveoli and lobules of the breast, the progesterone causes the alveolar cells to increase in number and size and capacity to secrete milk. Of course, progesterone does not cause the secretion of milk in and of itself without stimulation from the pituitary by way of prolactin. Finally, progesterone causes the breasts to swell on account of an increase in fluid retention and the changes in the alveoli and lobules.
Breast Enlargement Products And Breast Growth
Once the estrogen receptors are stimulated using estrogen, estrogen like or estrogen based substances, the breast can grow up to 150%. It is not surprising therefore that the most effective breast enlargement products contain phytoestrogens (plant based estrogen) which causes the body to behave as it would if estrogen were introduced to the body. Therefore, the glandular tissues build up in breast receptors. As this continues over a couple months, the breasts become larger, firmer and fuller.
Finding The Right Product For You
With a basic understanding of how breast growth works — as outlined above — you can have a clearer understanding of what kinds of products to look for. Finding the right breast enlargement product for you is a combination of knowledge and research. Now that you know what to look for, you are able to do some research and see which products are right for you.
