Which scary side effects are you talking of?

I'm sorry but have lost the link to the medical article about it, but suffice it to say that there are all sorts of potential cancers and sarcoma that can result from the overuse of BO.

PS: I apologise but I think I've made a mistake. What I find alarming was reading about this - https://www.rxlist.com/depo-estradiol-drug.htm

Beverly, conjugated estradiol and pharma progestin are risky to use as you've researched. micronized estradiol tablet (is rapidly metabolizedand) or delestrogen (estradiol valerate injection, USP...which I take for the last 2 years) , transdermal estradiol patch are by far better options than conjugated estradiol and pharma progestin.

 ...if someone goes the route of HRT they should seek medical care from a licensed doctor,  they will help monitor your medications, blood tests, liver function, insulin, diet, etc.

Everything we do to grow breasts comes with risk,  starting with low dose is probably the best strategy and monitoring results should be the gold standard of care while using DIY meds and or NBE  supplements. We go in eyes wide open right?

Hi Lotus,

Yes, I'm just very cautious and don't want to harm my body. I have always lived a healthy life, never smoked, I seldom drink alcohol, always exercise etc. So I'm researching a lot on my own, and thanks to YOUR incredible input, I have built up good knowledge myself. I've started my own program and I'm going to stick to it rigidly for at least 6 months, before evaluating the results. In the back of my mind there is a vague formation of a plan for surgery and a pharma hrt combo, and it will probably happen (knowing myself), but I still want to educate myself first, and this is why I'm looking at all of these options, some of which appear downright dubious. 

Has USP worked for you? Are there any nasty side effects?Judging by your avatar you must look spectacular.

Thank you.

Bev.
