The only thing I find quickly about black cohosh is that its phytoestrogenic, I've read it been mentioned here and there but I don't think its useful at all, there's much better stuff around. I remember that warning about liver health too.

Why not get the other ones as well, then take one of the ones you have now and one or two of the other? That way you use what you got and don't go insanely high with the cohosh either?

If you're not on conventional HRT, I would keep going with the EC if I were you, it wont do harm but it can help so why not?

Thank you so much for your reply, Heaven's Night.  I decided to do exactly what you suggest:  I bought the other product with 400 mg of Mammary only, which will arrive in a week.  I plan to alternate between the Mammary capsules I already have and the new ones.  I'm thinking of taking two Swanson Ovarian Glandulars and one of the Mammary capsules per day.  How does that sound?  During the course of taking these things, I haven't noticed any ill effects.  I'm very excited about the possibilities--we'll see how things go.

Its interesting, I know glandulars work amazingly to some poeple and the mammary one for me is nearly impossible to source, I would love to try it and have only heard whispers of someone trying it or thingking about it. So cool to see someone updating about this. I don't think the black cohosh is really a total liver poison, otherwise it wouldn't be sold just like that, but better keep its dose under control. Splitting what you have like that is a good idea on how to deal with it.

I did a similar thing when I was taking the Natural Sources Raw Female capsules before switching to Swanson, those had a boatload of zinc, so the way I took them in the end was split the dose between those and Swanson BO, the contents were the same 250mg per capsule, but Natural Sources one just had other stuffs and way too much zinc.

Keep updating about your progress, this is a fun experiment.

Update:  I have been on Swanson Ovarian Glandular, avg. of 2 capsules/day, for about 3 1/2 months now.  A couple of weeks ago I started taking the Bovine Mammary capsules as well.  First I tried the one with the other ingredients (Blessed Thistle and Black Cohosh).  Twelve hours later I became very ill with nausea and diarrhea.  I attributed this to something else I ate.  After I recovered from that I tried another Mammary capsule (the other kind with just the mammary ingredient), and 12 hours later I was sick again, but not as bad.  So now I'm very hesitant to take any more Mammary capsules.

Since that episode was over, I went back on the Swanson's BO which I seem to tolerate fairly well.  I am now upping the dosage to 3 or even 4 caps per day.

Not only is my skin smoother and my breasts a little fuller, my dreams have become more vivid and I remember them more.  Often the content of my recent dreams in some way involves me becoming feminine.  The subtle "good feeling" from BO is something I really like and I wish it were more pronounced.  Also I think I'm perceiving colors more.  It's like I'll look at familiar wallpaper and notice, "Oh, that pink part of the pattern really stands out now--it's really quite beautiful."  I thought this was just psychosomatic, but I keep noticing things like this when I'm not even thinking about it. I sense that my face is becoming a little softer--kind of a "moon face";  a little more youthful and feminine.

Others have reported that BO reduces libido, but I think mine has actually been enhanced!  The latest thing is that when I'm lying on my back, teasing my hard nipples and about to orgasm, my legs start quivering.  I find that when I encourage the quivering and do it more, it seems to bring on the orgasm more quickly.  I googled it and it appears that many women quiver and shake just before they climax.  

I posted these pics to show you what my body looks like at this point in the process:  BO 3 1/2 months.  Plus the TCP + fenugreek, PM, and lavender oil for about 3 years.  Even though Mammary is on hold for now, I'm excited about possible future feminization which may occur now that I'm continuing to take BO but at a higher dose.  Needless to say, all this feminization has made me more happy than I've ever been!

2)  I really love how shapely rear has become and how my upper arms are so slim and delicate like a girl's.  You can see my pelvic tilt and muscle atrophy.

3)  Sometimes I think I'm sexier with clothes ON! 

I appreciate any feedback and shared experiences.

Love, Graceful

Mise à jour : Je prends des gélules de glandes ovariennes Swanson, à raison de 2 gélules par jour en moyenne, depuis environ trois mois et demi. Il y a quelques semaines, j’ai également commencé à prendre des gélules d’extrait de glandes mammaires bovines. J’ai d’abord essayé celles contenant d’autres ingrédients (chardon béni et actée à grappes noires). Douze heures plus tard, j’ai été très malade, souffrant de nausées et de diarrhée. J’ai pensé que cela était dû à un autre aliment que j’avais mangé. Après m’être rétablie, j’ai essayé une autre gélule d’extrait de glandes mammaires bovines (celle qui ne contient que cet ingrédient), et douze heures plus tard, j’ai de nouveau été malade, mais moins intensément. Du coup, j’hésite beaucoup à reprendre ces gélules.

Cet épisode étant passé, j’ai repris les gélules d’extrait de glandes ovariennes Swanson, que je semble bien tolérer. J’augmente maintenant la dose à 3 ou même 4 gélules par jour.

Non seulement ma peau est plus lisse et mes seins un peu plus fermes, mais mes rêves sont devenus plus vifs et je m’en souviens mieux. Souvent, le contenu de mes rêves récents implique d’une manière ou d’une autre que je devienne féminine. Cette légère sensation de bien-être que me procure l'odeur corporelle me plaît beaucoup et j'aimerais qu'elle soit plus prononcée. J'ai aussi l'impression de mieux percevoir les couleurs. Par exemple, je regarde un papier peint familier et je remarque : « Oh, cette partie rose du motif ressort vraiment maintenant, c'est vraiment très joli. » Je pensais que c'était psychosomatique, mais je remarque ce genre de choses sans même y penser. J'ai l'impression que mon visage s'adoucit, qu'il a un aspect lunaire ; qu'il est plus jeune et plus féminin.

D'autres disent que l'odeur corporelle diminue la libido, mais j'ai l'impression que la mienne est au contraire stimulée ! Dernièrement, quand je suis allongée sur le dos, que je caresse mes tétons et que je suis sur le point d'avoir un orgasme, mes jambes se mettent à trembler. J'ai remarqué qu'en accentuant ces tremblements, l'orgasme arrive plus vite. J'ai fait une recherche sur Google et il semblerait que beaucoup de femmes tremblent juste avant d'atteindre l'orgasme.  

J'ai posté ces photos pour vous montrer à quoi ressemble mon corps à ce stade du processus : BO depuis 3 mois et demi. Plus TCP + fenugrec, PM et huile de lavande depuis environ 3 ans. Même si le développement mammaire est en suspens pour le moment, je suis enthousiaste à l'idée d'une possible féminisation future, qui pourrait se produire maintenant que je continue à prendre du BO, mais à une dose plus élevée. Inutile de dire que toute cette féminisation me rend plus heureuse que jamais !

2) J'aime vraiment la forme de mes fesses et la finesse de mes bras, si féminins. On peut voir mon basculement du bassin et l'atrophie musculaire.

3) Parfois, je me trouve plus sexy habillée ! 

Vos commentaires et témoignages sont les bienvenus.

Amicalement, Graceful

    

Tu es magnifique xx

Just from following you over the past year maybe two or more, you started with a nice feminine shape. You seem to respond well to BO. Progress will be slow.

I know with me softer skin and breast sensitivity was what I noticed first. I was on it for 2 years before switching to Estradiol. But overall I liked BO and the mental changes from it.
