What Determines a Woman’s Breast Size?
Have you ever wondered, what determined the breast size that you utlimately ended up with, after you went through those horrible years of adolescence, hoping you’d end up with a little something up top?
Usually women experience the heaviest breast growth during the adolescent teen period of ages 12-20, sometimes starting a little earlier and ending a little later, depending on the individual .
My little theory on why girls start puberty and start growing “big breasts” so much earlier now is the abundance of synthetic hormones and hormone-mimicking preservatives and substances that have overtaken our food supply now, but that’s beside the point.
The thing that primarily determines your breast size, which can always of course be an exception in any woman’s case, is heredity and genetics, which are actually just about the same thing, except genetics determine a lot more in your body.
Heredity strictly refers to the fact that you “inherited” certain traits directly from a familial descendant of some sort, most often a female descendant of close relation, like your mother or grandmother.
Although, some of you are thinking, then why does my grandma have big bazookas and I got size A’s? Like I said, it’s not a 100% positive thing with everyone, but it is a fairly safe bet that if you come from a long line of very thin women with small breasts, you will probably end up the same way, or vice versa.

Women with Breast Implants Have a Lower Risk of Cancer?
In recent studies to further confirm that breast implants have no impact on a patient’s likelihood of getting breast cancer, findings went a step further and apparently found that women with breast implants actually have a LOWER risk of breast cancer than the average woman.Â
Not a significantly compelling as in you should run out and get implants type of lower risk mind you, but a statistically recognizabel lower risk than average at least.Â
Although the reason for this new discovery and correlation is not clear at this time, a study of more than 24,000 women who underwent breast augmentation surgery in the 70’s and 80’s, when silicone implants were still legal and were actually the sole implant used in these surgeries, researchers in Canada had found that the women had a 43% lower risk rate compared with the general population of women, without implants that is.
Amazingly enough, they also showed a lower-than-average risk of developing cancer of any kind.
Interesting..

Did Gwen Stefani Get Breast Implants?
My opinion is no, but apparently some of these celebrity plastic surgery blogs and sites are saying they suspect she has. Gwen Stefani (who I adore – she’s got great style and is a really cute girl), started off extremely flat chested in her early days in her band No Doubt.Â
If you look at her now, it depends on whether she’s wearing a great pushup bra or not, but sometimes she looks like she may have gotten SMALL implants, and sometimes she just looks like she’s got her same large A to small B cup breasts. What’s the big deal?  A girl can’t wear a great pushup bra? Plus, she just gave birth to her son, Kingston James, so of course she’s gonna have post pregnancy big-boobs for a while.Â
Bottom Line on Gwen Stefani and Breast Implants?
I don’t think she has them, and I’m sticking to it.

Herbal Feminization : What IS It?
Lots of men ask what exactly is the concept behind herbal feminization, and while I know I’ve already covered this topic in this magazine before, I still feel as though it warrants further discussion, or clarification if you will.
Herbal feminization is a means by which a man’s body is feminized throught the use of a combination of several different herbs, known for their estrogen (female hormone responsible for breast growth, periods, feminine characteristics), mimicking abilities.
Some of these herbs are Dong Quai, Dandelion Root, Wild Yam, and a few others that are well known in herbal and natural medicine circles for their feminizing characteristics. These same herbs were actually used ages ago as a sexual aphrodisiac and fertility enhancer for women of all ages, as well as menopause relief for women who were undergoing unpleasant menopause side effects due to estrogen depletion, to replenish estrogenic activity in the body that occurs with youth in most women.
These same herbs, or combination of herbs, works much the same way in a man’s body as it does in a woman’s body in that it increases substantially the saturation of the estrogen hormone, via a natural form of the female hormone, and increases thereby the feminine attributes of a man, giving him softer skin, sometimes a more “womanly” shape, and of course, the growth of the ultimate hallmark of being a woman, breasts.
It depends on the guy, how well he responds to herbal feminization, whether he grows breasts that are truly comparable to female boobs, but most men do notice their body becoming more feminine in one way or another when on the herbal supplements.

String Implants are Just Creepy
String breast implants are now illegal in the US. They are breast implants that are extremely risky, and were mostly used on women in the porn industry, who wanted outrageously sized breasts.Â
I’ve seen pictures of women with these string implants, and they are utterly disgusting looking, not to mention, they look as if they put your eye out if you jog or even walk at a fast pace, as well as put your back out.Â
They are implants that gradually grow bigger and bigger as special “Strings” inside of them engorge with fluid. You can look at some of these pictures of women with string implants here on this forum :

Breast Cancer Gene of European Origin Found to Great Increase Risk
Well, there’s been good news and bad news in the fight to cure breast cancer, or at least reduce the incidence of it. Researchers have just found a gene in women of European origin that can greatly increase their risk of developing the prominent female disease.
This newly discovered breast cancer gene is said to work in combination with the better known genes identified as the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes, to raise the risk of breast cancer by as much as 80% in women.
Not only that, but further findings on this new gene suggest that women with specific mutations in two of the genes have an almost certain risk of developing breast cancer at some point in their life. Like I said, seems like we make great strides one day, and find out devastating news the next!

Porn Star Tera Patrick Got Breast Implants
Porn star Tera Patrick, the gorgeous, model-looking porn star who doesn’t look like she belongs in porn, except for a ridiculous body and huge breasts, looks like she’s gotten DD breast implants on her recent cover photo on FHM Men’s magazine.
They are comparable to the breast implants that Jenna Jameson, another popular porn star has. They look too big in my opinion, but they actually don’t look too bad, since Tera had a little something there to start off with. Tera started off with about a large C or D cup breasts before she got the implants, so she had plenty of “padding” to begin with.Â
Tera says she got the breast implants because in the business, big breasts are desirable, and every time she’d diet and lose weight, she’d lose her breasts too. This way they won’t sag too, I guess. I thought she looked better without them, my b/f begs to differ.

The Pressure to Breast Feed
It’s no secret that the consensus in the general “civilian” community as well as the medical community, breast feeding your infant child has health benefits for the baby above and beyond bottle feeding. Also, studies show recently that breastfed babies are less likely develop ear infections, respiratory illnesses and also diarrhea.
But what if you are one of the mothers that cannot breast feed, or due to personal choice or scheduling, are simply not choosing to breast feed your baby? And what about these new ads that make you feel guilty if you are a new mom and you do not breast feed? I mean, it’s almost like they might as well say you don’t “really” care about your child if you choose not to breastfeed for personal reasons!
New moms everywhere are apparently feeling the maternal pressures that society is putting on them to breast feed their child, even if it is not in the best interest of the mother and child’s personal situation or an extreme hardship for the mother.
Statistics have shown that almost 70% of all new mothers choose to breast feed, and this dwindles down after six weeks, mostly because most families now require the mom to work, and she’s got business to take care of, to feed the baby and clothe the baby, among other things.
The government sponsored ad campaign for breast feeding that is rubbing some new moms the wrong way is winding down now reportedly though, and they say their intention was not to create guilt, but to educate on the merits of breast feeding and the benefits a child can get if they are breast fed.

Gene Test May Now Help Women Decide on Chemo for Breast Cancer
It almost seems too good to be true, but a new genetic test developed and currently under study as we speak, may help women to make the tough choice of whether to undergo chemotherapy for their breast cancer after a lump or mass of cancerous cells has been removed.It was estimated that thousands of women a year undergo chemotherapy, which is extremely hard on one’s body and mind, that don’t really have to, out of fear that all the cancer was not caught or that they may have a relapse if they do not have the chemo, and as a “safety net” after a cancerous mass has been removed from their breasts.
This is the first step toward a tailored cancer therapy, not only for breast cancer, but for other cancers as well, that are built around the results of this simple gene test.
Since we all know the unfortunate side effects of chemotherapy, right down to death, this is very good news, indeed and a small step toward victory over the ever-increasing incidence of breast cancer and patient’s quality of life!
