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.
Have you pursued any of these options for MTF breast enlargement? If so, what was your experience?

Dearest Lucille,
Is it ok to be turned on by your own breasts?
Love
Martin
Martin, if you’re not going to get a kick out of ’em
what’s the use of them. GO 4 IT!
You too eh?
I get turned on by bum too. It has grown so jiggly, even though I lost 15 lbs, on Lucille’s program. (cut back on sugar big time!)
Wow that’s interesting stuff. I like the part about how the pumps increase the top of the breasts, because that’s the part I’m lacking. The growth started on the sides, then filled in the bottom and the top is the last part to fill out.
I’ve been on the supplements, massaging with fenugreek and red clover extract in cream twice daily, brewing tea, or chewing Zoft breast gum, for 13 months now. I’ve also tried Neocan homeopathic tissue salts for breast enlargement when I can find them. They seem to give things a bit of a boost. I’ve gone from ribs showing under my nipples to a full A-cup and they are really starting to take off now.
Would a girl use the pump in place of the massage or in addition to the massage?
BTW, I marched in the pride parade last week with my tranny support group. My gf said I was the sexiest one there, because the other T-girls were dressing their normal modest fashion, but I was in a mini-skirt and halter top. Hey it’s Pride day, time to be flamboyant! It was the most skin, I’ve ever shown in public. We even rode the public transit there and back. It was so empowering.
Which pump did you use??? I’m thinking about using the noodle berry everyone’s talking about
Dear Lucille,
I really appreciate the new information about breast pump usage for enlargement. I just ordered the Noogleberry system and have high hopes for it. I also just recieved the breast enlargement hypnosis from Wendi Fresen and began using it 4 days ago. I am very pleased with that, as it seems to address more deeply psychological blocks to breast growth rather than just commanding the tissue to grow.
I have a couple stumbling blocks regarding the Flat to Fem program that I ordered from you. One is that I have difficulty swallowing the herbal pills. I have tried dissolving the herbs in warm water, but that just turns out to become a gloppy mess clumping up in the cup and causing me to gag just as much as swallowing the pills. Do you have any suggestions? I really would appreciate it as I truly want to “get with the program” and get acceptible breasts. I am very tired of seeing half my breasts go into the dresser drawer when I put my bra away ( I just wear a regular padded, underwire bra like any GG would…I refuse to stuff with breast forms…I feel that’s for transvestites and drag queens, not real transsexual women!)
My other problem is that when I took a trip up to Trinidad, Co for my consultation with Dr. Marci Bowers to prepare for my GRS I had shut my computer down before I left. To my horror when I returned home and turned on my PC it crashed!!! This forced me to restore to factory settings and I lost all my files…including the highly important Flat to Fem file. Is there a way I can get a duplicate file, or do I have to pay to order a new one?
I want to thank and commend you for all your efforts and help to transsexual women like myself to assist us in being the women we need to be. You are a Godsend to girls like me! God bless you Lucille…keep up the good work!!!
Love,
Tracie
PS….Sorry for not uploading a pic, but I lost all my pics when the PC crashed and haven’t had time to take any new ones…TDL
Been on your program fore two monthes and have grown almost two inches.Love my figure.
I have been taking the herbs and Massaging as out lined in your Flat to ferm with little results other than larger chest and a small increase in cup size until I started using the Fenugreek extrict mixed with lotion to massage with. Now I am seeing improvement
breasts:which herbs and what how long?
Hi Ralph, go to http://www.flat2fem.com and download the free report. That will tell you what you need to know!
I have been using a pump for ~ 3 years. I started with the BB system, but the pump motor gave up the ghost a few times before I gave up. The noise and being ‘tethered’ to the machine was a problem as well as not traveling well. (The BB system is not well made, and I’m not sure where you saw a price of $115, but I paid over $300 with the domes.
I switched to Noogleberry about 14 months ago, and it is much better. I can control the suction better, I use an air lock so I can detach the pump and do things without being tied down. I also was able to get their XL domes (I am happy to say I have gone through the 3 set that came with the BB).
So how am I doing? I started with nothing, and I am a solid B between pumping (I pump once a day) and a full C right afterward.
Now the down side. Pumping tends to fill in the TOP of your breasts, and not the bottom, so nipples tend to be a little low on the breast compared to GG breasts. Other then that, the pumping also makes them sensitive ( that’s a good thing to me 🙂 ) Also, try not to have anyone see you while pumping, the pump tends to make your breasts a nice shade of purple while you are pumping, and people look in horror at that 🙂
So Pumping works if you do it every day, keep the amount of suction at just the edge of comfort (no pain no gain, almost 🙂 ) and be ready to take some time. 3 years to go from flat to B sounds long, but I am not ready for the scalpel yet.

Hi Theresa,
Keep it up! I also deplore the fact that the top of thr breast grows more. I try to keep the domes lower on the breast so as to expand the lower tissue. I have order nipple expansion cylinders from gravityworkzbest.com, and look forward to using them. BTW I live in Canada, and prefer to get my equipment from a US dealer than ordering from the UK.
Pauline
Hi Theresa, the Bosom Beauty Airlock (with a manual pump) is $130 and the Bosom Beauty 2012 Deluxe (with a mechanical pump) is $490 with domes. Glad you are getting great results with the Noogleberry! Are you using herbs, too?
I have just looked at the Noogleberry site, and the system is the same as the one I got from my US supplier, gravityworkzbest.com. They sell a pump which has better construction and includes a guage.
Happy pumping.
Pauline
