I am new to the entire transgender/transsexual world, and came into it fully unprepared. Because of a specific health problem (not an enlarged prostate), I was put on 5 mg Finasteride per day. This seems to have done the trick with my health problem, but I also started to develop breasts, not big ones (I don't know my way around cup sizes, and would not know what I would have). My breasts are definitely little (about like a young teenager girl would have). Over the same time, my "male parts" got smaller and smaller, and a pretty large penis has now shrunk down to a 3 or 4" small member. I am not able to get any erections any more, but still can orgasm if I am lucky to get a hold of enough flesh for manipulation. That was OK with me until a few months ago, when I got more and more the desire to have larger breasts. I have to say that I was born with only one fully functional testicle, and had never any really visible hair on my legs, arms or arm pits. I never had any hair on my chest. and I feel that the little body hair I had, is now also disappearing. Interesting enough, I have a pretty strong beard growth and a full head of hair (may be that is the other siede effect of Finasteride?).
Here I sit, and dream of bigger boobs and if it would be possible, also a vagina, while, at the same time, I enjoy being a man! I do not want to change my gender, I just would like the "parts" associated with the other gender.
I would never consider a breast implant. I was one of the original developers of breast implants (I am a medical professional, not a physician, but a researcher), and when we did that many years ago, we did not have implants in mind to provide some bigger boobs to people, but to help women that had their breast removed because of cancer. In such case the surgeon would leave a little bit of fatty tissue to remain just under the skin, and insert the implant to give the reconstructed breast a natural look. If such an implant is just shoved underneath skin of people that were not "meant" to have breasts, a very artificial looking breast is achieved that looks as if a ball was nailed to a board. And I don't want that look!
I just wonder, what i can do except to continue to take my Finasteride, to get some bigger breasts, not much but just a little. If have no real clue, where to buy some of the HRT drugs. I live in the south of the US and I do not feel comfortable to talk with my family physician about this. I could do self medication and have to do blood tests every 3 months anyway. This would ensure that my blood values would be pretty closely controlled.
I just wonder if there is anybody around here in this forum, who feels like I feel and wants to remain to be a male, but with female sexual parts? How does that classify me, not really trans of anything, or?

Hi been reading through this and many bunkum theories and un'truths.
Many of the Herbs are not so good for you!
Some need body at a constant temp to metabolise or just does nothing.
17Beta Estrogen isn't as potent as Ethylene estrogen but isn't as problamatic as more natural and EE is very synthetic.
But hormones are just hormones it's how each person is that determines how/what works just like a key to a lock!
Many that have Gyneo from puberty have a head start as findings are if have/had makes you susceptible to hormone changes within your life cycle.
Think it's because your receptors are different to other non gyneo's
Even age isn't a barrier to growth as it's the person as were not all the same.
I'm 50's yet still growing and if hormones change get the sensitive/sore feelings of growth.

Just as an update on my earlier post. I have been tested meanwhile and I am intersex with the XXY chromosomes and a host of other chromosome mutations. It seems as if most of my makeup is way more female than male, and that I never finished puberty, I am doing this right now, and that is the reason why my breasts are growing. Im a now undergoing medical treatment, because my body is hardly producing any testosterone and not enough estrogen for me to stay healthy. I am on an estrogen treatment regime now, and are rapidly feminizing. At the moment I am gender fluid, but the female side seems to get stronger by the day. I mostly present female now.

One of the things to promote growth is to trick the body into starting it.
The process will be different for most as were all different coming from two blood/genetic lines.
As many will notice/know what has worked for one hasn't worked for them or vice versa.
Some of the Herbs stuff works if proper stuff? as much is just shit in packets pedalled out at high prices to the unwary that are eager.
plus have to be used in right way as needs body to kept above a temp or won't work.
One of the main problems with taking things not prescribed is are they what they say in right amounts and anything added that shouldn't be in there?
Safest is what quacks give you but for many not really an option or not till a fair way on for them as life is rarely perfect as if was you'd get them easily.

i believe most of the pills and creams that claim to provide breast growth are ripoffs. however, my breasts grew to a C-cup as a side effect of the anti anxiety drug resperidone. i would not recommend taking this drug simply to grow breasts though, because it has other side effects which can have serious health risks.
