In a word: no. There is no such thing as a breast enlargement pill. At least not one that can offer long-lasting results. As well, a breast enlargement pill is actually more like a breast enhancement pill. That is, the pill will probably make your breasts look better, but it won’t necessarily make them bigger.

Most often a breast enlargement pill will be herbal. It will contain herbs that supplement or stimulate hormones or mimic hormonal activity. Estrogen and progesterone are two hormones that control sexual and reproductive development, including breast development, in women. Some herbal pills will contain plant estrogen and some will contain ingredients that mimic the effects of estrogen and progesterone. Others claim to stimulate hormonal production. Anecdotal evidence reveals that the pills work somewhat – effects are minimal and temporary – but they are generally not regulated or tested for safety or efficacy.

If you are looking for a breast enlargement pill that is proven to be safe and effective and has years of scientific research and study backing it and don’t mind synthetic hormones, look no further than your basic birth control pill. Birth control pills contain either estrogen or progesterone or some combination of the two. As explained above, these hormones regulate breast growth to a good extent, but this is not likely to be what’s happening when you are taking birth control pills. Rather, the likely cause of enlarged breasts is false hope.

Hormones trick your body into thinking it’s already pregnant so that you are kept from becoming pregnant after intercourse. When the body is pregnant, or thinks it is or is about to be, one of the first things it does is grow more breast tissue, glands and ductwork to prepare for lactation. If it turns out that the body is not pregnant, all this disappears and the breasts shrink to pre-pregnancy size. With birth control pills, the body always thinks it’s pregnant so enlarged breasts do not decrease in size. They will decrease in size if you stop taking birth control pills. The same effects can occur with estrogen supplements used to treat issues related to menopause.

Whether you choose an herbal breast enlargement pill or a synthetic one, chances are the results will be subtle. You may experience enlargement of up to two cup sizes, but chances are this growth will occur over several years. More likely, you will experience subtle growth that makes your breasts fuller within the same general size range.
