Breasts are a popular topic here on the blog. And no wonder! There’s nothing more feminine than the female bosom.
Obtaining feminine curves, particularly breasts, is a major goal for many transgender women and crossdressers.
While breast forms or padded bras provide a temporary solution, having your own feminine breasts can be a vital step in the male to female journey.
The good news is that there are many ways to reach this goal!
That’s why in this blog post, I offer an overview of the most popular MFT breast enlargement methods, including pros and cons of each. Read on to learn more!
Transgender Hormone Therapy
If you are a trans woman planning a full transition, then gender affirming hormone therapy (also known as transgender hormone replacement therapy or HRT) is the best place to begin your breast enlargement journey.
While hormone therapy can’t undo the effects of puberty, it will cause feminizing changes in the body including changes in hair growth, skin texture, redistribution of body fat, and yes, breast growth.
Breast growth typically begins within 3 months of starting hormones. The breasts experience significant growth in the first 6-12 months. Breast growth typically slows down after that, but the breasts can continue to develop for years.
It’s important to know that your age can significantly impact your results with hormone therapy. Trans women who start hormones at a younger age typically experience more dramatic results than those who start at a later age.
Herbal Pills And Creams
This method can be controversial, and it’s not a replacement for gender affirming hormone therapy for those going through a full transition. That said, herbal pills and creams are used by many early-stage trans women and even crossdressers.
The premise is simple: There are many natural herbs (known as phytoestrogens) that have estrogenic effects, as well as herbs that have anti-androgenic effects.
These herbs have been used by cisgender women for centuries to manage symptoms of PMS, menopause, and other hormonal conditions.
These herbs can also be used to mimic some of the effects of transgender HRT, though obviously the effects will be much weaker.
Personally, I know of many people who have obtained significant breast enlargement using herbal products and were happy with their results. Even so, it’s important to have realistic expectations with this method.
If you’re interested and want to explore this option, I have these recommendations:

- Sublime Bust – A pueraria mirifica-infused breast serum that’s been a bestseller among MTF customers since 2015
Breast Implant Surgery
Hormonal breast enlargement methods, including transgender HRT or phytoestrogenic herbs, can take a lot of time and the results can be somewhat unpredictable.
The most reliable way to obtain the exact breast size and shape you desire is through breast augmentation surgery. This can be a very satisfying surgery if you take the time to find a good doctor and thoroughly research the procedure.
I recommend checking out this guide to breast augmentation to learn more about the surgery. It covers the costs, risks to consider, and differences between the various types of breast implants.
Fat Transfer Breast Augmentation
Did you know that breast implants aren’t the only surgical option for increasing your breast size? Fat transfer breast augmentation uses your body’s own natural fat to increase your breast size.
The advantage of this technique is that the results typically look more natural than breast implants. The downside is that it can only increase the breasts 1-2 cup sizes. You also have to have enough excess fat on your body that can be transferred to the breasts, so this is not a good option for very thin people.

Breast Enlargement Pump
Turning our attention back to non-surgical methods, a final option to consider is using a breast enlargement pump.
While this might sound like a gimmick, there is some actual science to back it up. Breast enlargement pumps stimulate breast growth through tissue expansion.
Studies show that applying tension to an area leads to tissue growth. Surgeons use this technique (known as “tissue expansion”) to regenerate skin, bones and other tissues. Applying vacuum pressure to your breasts can also stimulate real growth over the long run.
A medical grade breast enlargement pump called the Brava was developed by plastic surgeon Roger K. Khouri, MD. Currently, the Brava is used by some plastic surgeons to enhance the results of fat transfer to the breasts.
While the Brava is only available through plastic surgeons, there are other breast enlargement pumps on the market.
One popular option is The Noogleberry Breast Enlargement System, which starts at $60. This device is meant to be used for 30 mins to 1 hour per day and can be used alone or to enhance the results of herbs or hormone therapy.
An added bonus of using a breast enlargement pump like the Noogleberry is that it can give you an instant size boost by increasing blood flow to the breasts. This swelling only lasts a few hours, but you can enjoy the results in the meantime!

Warning! Avoid Silicone Breast Injections
Now that we’ve covered 5 options for MTF breast enlargement, let’s talk about one that you absolutely need to avoid and that’s illicit silicone breast injections.
Silicone injections are banned in the U.S. and most countries, however, they are still used in some countries or performed under the table by unqualified injectors.
Injectable silicone is different from FDA-approved silicone breast implants. Silicone implants keep the silicone contained within the breast implant, preventing it from migrating within the body.
Silicone gel injections, on the other hand, can cause serious injury, disfigurement or even death as the silicone migrates. These injections must be avoided at all costs.
Let’s talk about breasts!
As always, I’d love to hear your thoughts on this hot topic.

Breast growth can be a complex subject due to so many variations of methods, health, genes and age What worked well for one may not for someone else. Probably the only way to really get the size you want is by getting implants and there’s no guarantees there either. My thinking was that if I was going to take hrt, I wanted to give myself every chance to get the best results i could give myself by maintaining a healthy diet, exercise and drinking lots of water. I hardly ever drink alcohol and I don’t smoke. I began hrt at age 59. I’ve had significant breast growth at 5 yrs of hrt injections
Heard medical HRT messes with your liver. That’s why, I tried herbal HRT. Tastes awful, but… works? The effect is slow and minute, but it stacks. Especially, when your body is adamantly resistive to most of external influences.
Now I understand why Babylonian medicine was all-herbal.
It’s my understanding that estrogen in pill form passes through the liver, reducing its effectiveness so the dosage needs to be high which is hard on the liver. My skin softened and breast buds grew from herbal. The injections I take, have microcrystals that slowly dissolve and are only injected every 2 weeks. That has been the most effective for me. I also heard patches are good but are more expensive. Good luck.
Wow girl! You look amazing. Great info too.
I did 3 months of progynova, and am now on herbals. I did breast suction off and on for a short time. I have B cups and a little bounce. I love what I have achieved.
I started hormones late in life, so the effects are not as great, but it happened some, and still is, very slowly. Previously, I used an aggressive homemade herbal mix, that worked almost as well as the estrogen. I used a homemade pumping gadget that gave me some success, until the pump wiring needed work that I haven’t yet gotten to. The neat thing about pumping is that you can move your cups around to specialize in certain areas. You just need to insure that their size and shape are effective and safe. I added foam to the rims, creating a challenge for a good seal. It’s all so fascinating and rewarding!
the only thing i have been taking is birth control pills and it has some given me a little of breast
Tell me about hormone therapy
I have tryed herbs witch didnt do much for me. But HRT and breast inhansment pumps worked the best. And having gender Confirming surgery they grew one size bigger. From where they where I’m a 32G now American sizing.
