A much shorter time than it took Sfem to start losing volume. On the other hand, once back on PM she almost immediately started to feel "full" again.
What I suggest you try is coming off PM long enough to regain your attraction to clothes, and immediately go back on the maintenance dose until it becomes boring again, and cycle. If my theory is right, you won't lose volume, but you may go "on heat" for a while every month - which should feel a bit more feminine, eh?

Unfortunately, for me the volume loss comes before the feeling return. Back in May, I stopped for 4 weeks, but noticeably had lost volume after about 2 or so and started PM again at 4 because I couldn't bear the volume loss any longer. It was only about the same 4 week mark that I also started feeling I wanted to dress again, and although that lasted for probably another couple of weeks, it tailed off without me realising. (It is just possible that the 'need' to get the boobs back and the 'need' to dress are part of the same 'need' to express my female side, which is why they expressed themselves at the same time, but it could also be just coincidence).
That was the basis for me talking about the possibility of other herbs having a different mental effect and trying to ride that cross-over point that way, but it doesn't look as though it is possible.
The only other plan I have thought of, is to use PM to actually get bigger than I really want to be and then stop in the hope that the resultant volume loss drops me back to where I do want to be and also allows the other feelings to surface, but that will probably end up with a horrible droopy shape
