Lotus, hon, my comment wasn't intended to discredit those who choose to follow a more complex program. It makes sense to evolve one's program over time. Beginners are best served by a simple program like just PM, not even an AA at first. But, as things progress assuming they do, (and if not, more drastic action is certainly justified), growth will tend to slow and even stall. It then makes sense to add to one's program to reinvigorate growth or target other feminization objectives. It seems completely reasonable that those who have been on an NBE program for 2 years or more would tend to have more complex programs than we who are just getting started. It assumes that over those years, experiments were undertaken to determine the effects of other herbs that influence other relevant endo mechanisms. Then, it's even more important to have regular blood tests to monitor liver and kidney health.
The other aspect of choosing an NBE program is deciding what your ultimate objective is. My original objective was focused on obtaining mental benefits, not breast growth. PM alone was more than adequate to achieve that objective. Now, in the middle of my 5th month, I'm much more interested in other aspects of feminization, so I'm adding anti-androgens. Tomorrow, who knows? An unknown percentage of those who have come to Breast Nexus over the years have gone on to formal HRT treatment and full transitioning. Most of those end up on typically just two drugs, albeit powerful ones. And, after SRS, only one. Talk about simplicity!
Bottom line for me is: take the PM whenever it's convenient. If you want to experiment with dosages, schedules, breaks, with or without food, with or without calcium, etc., that's fine. I've done it myself, but I have to say, it's very difficult to see any difference in the rate of growth in the short term. The only thing that seems to provide meaningful feedback is breast soreness.
Go for maximum pain! LOL
