I had seen already earlier some research suggesting that Tea Tree Oil and Lavender Oil may promote breast growth in pre-puberty children by their components acting as "Endocrine Disruptors" - being estrogenic and suppressing testosterone.

Personally I would prefer using Lavender Oil, because Tea Tree Oil has such a strong smell. According to those studies I saw, both oils have several same components found to be estrogenic.

Also, please note that those essential oils are pretty strong - outright irritants - and shouldn't be uses on skin undiluted. That dilution is done typically with a neutral "carrier oil".

Today I discovered this article: https://jurnalinterest.com/index.php/int/article/download/332/180/1049
"Breast Massage Using Lavender Oil To Increase Breast Milk Production Of Breastfeeding Mothers". It is very interesting, considering that many of us here seem to want lactation as well. A funny observation is that massage even by coconut oil seemed to provide increased milk supply. I just wonder how much the massage with "anything" would increase it? Anyway, Lavender Oil had clearly greater effect than Coconut Oil.

Maybe something to consider when doing "breast massage cream" experiments?
