An Introduction To Herbal Feminization

Hormones can be a risky solution for transgender females. Discover how herbs can help you feminize your figure safely and naturally.

The differences between men and women all boil down to hormones. Unfortunately, however, synthetic hormones are rarely a simple solution for feminization. There are numerous risks involved and medical supervision is a must.

For many transgender females (especially those who maintain a male persona), these risks simply outweigh the benefits. Does that mean it's time to kiss your wish of becoming a woman good bye? Not at all! Herbs are one feminizing alternative that won't cost you your health.

While many are quick to dismiss herbs as a form of quackery, the fact remains that numerous herbs impact the hormonal balance of the male body. These herbs, known as phytoestrogens, mimic the effects of estrogen and are particularly effective at triggering breast growth. After all, gynecomastia (male breast enlargement) is triggered by factors ranging from medications to marijuana to old age, so it stands to reason that herbs could also have this effect.

Does that make herbs a wholesale replacement for hormones? No. However, for those seeking only partial feminization, herbs can lead to an increase in breast size, softer skin, and possible rounding of the hips and behind.

How do you get started with herbal feminization? There are over 300 plants with phytoestrogenic activity, but the herbs that have proven most effective for feminization include fenugreek, fennel, wild yam, red clover, and hops. I suggest starting with a minimal dose of two or three herbs and working your way up as needed. (Just be sure not to exceed the manufacturer's recommended dosage and speak with your doctor first if you have a medical condition or take prescription medications.)

To maximize breast enlargement, I also recommend massaging liquid herbal extracts into the breasts. Your breasts have the ability to absorb plant chemicals directly, so this helps target herbs where they are needed most. Simply combine a dropper full of extract with a tablespoon of body lotion and massage into the breasts twice daily.

What can you expect? While individual results vary, many males are able to increase their breasts by two or three inches strictly through the use of herbs and massage. Most notice changes within three weeks, though it can take several months to experience significant growth.

Patience and realistic expectations are a must, but thousands of males and transgender females have proven that hormones aren't the only answer for a more feminine figure. Herbs truly can make a difference!

In brief, the main methods of using plant material to summon protection are: carrying the substance on your person in a locket or a sachet, boiling the herb and sprinkling the residual water around your residence, putting a sprig of it under your bed or pillow, bathing in a distillation of it or burning it as incense.

Agrimony: Is burned or sprinkled around the house to send bad spirits back to the sender.
Angelica: Worn on the person to protect from evil spirits, however a drawback of this herb is that it also may protect you from opportunities.

A Quick Guide to Herbal Terminology

Always consult a qualified herbalist and/or health practitioner before using herbs and plants!

Infusions

Infusions are the simplest way to access the active principles of herbs. Infusions are made the way we make tea using the dried and/or powdered parts of the herb or plant. If you can find an infusion ball all the better simple add the dried herb to the ball and pour over boiling water. Leave for 5 to 10 minutes then remove the ball and drink the liquid or add to the skin if you have been prescribed this method. In some cases it is best to leave the infusion much longer, for example, camomile flower heads make an excellent painkiller when applied to the skin. They work really well for sties and other eye problems as well. Simply infuse the camomile heads (make sure they are organic) in boiling water, leave over night, strain and then use the liquid. Soak the liquid in a cotton wool pad and apply to the affected area for about 20 minutes, do this repeatedly throughout the day.

Decoctions

Roots, fruits and bark need to simmer in order to extract their medicinal qualities. Cut or tear the roots and bark in to smaller pieces and place in a pan (make sure you use a lid) of simmering water. After about 20 minutes, cool and strain. The decoction can then be drunk or applied to skin depending on the plant and treatment required.

Tinctures

This means immersing a dried or fresh herb/plant in alcohol so the active principles can be extracted at high concentrations. The best alcohol to use is ethyl alcohol, distilled from cereals, however this is hard to obtain and a 45% proof pure vodka will do the trick. Never use methyl alcohol, isopropyl or methylated spirits, and always consult a qualified practitioner beforehand. Simply immerse a balance mix of herbs to alcohol and leave in a tightly closed jar until you need it. Then apply at the prescribed dosage.

Infused Oils

Pure oils like olive, sunflower and almond readily dissolve the active principles in plants and herbs. This is also called an infusion. Simply mix the herbs with the oil. Warning - exercise great caution whan taking preparing infused oils especially when they are to be taken internally, and do not use essential oils in this cavalier manner.

Essential Oils

Essential oils are the volatile oily components of herbs and plants and can be extracted by distillation, steam and enffleurage. In all cases follow instructions very carefully. Always consult a qualified herbalist and/or health practitioner before using herbs and plants!
