How to Increase Breast Size Naturally by Exercise and Eating

Many women want larger breasts, but find it difficult to buy flattering clothes due to a flat chest. Estrogen is the main hormone responsible for breast growth and development. As a teen, a girl will start to grow breast tissue and usually require larger bra sizes each year. Some girls might hit a plateau during breast development. While the exact reason for underdeveloped breasts is unknown, some speculate that this is due to a decrease in estrogen in the female body and an increase in testosterone. Certain foods and exercises can help reverse these problems.

Exercise

Step 1

Hold a 5 lb. weight in each hand while sitting in a straight-back chair. Allow your arms to hang at your sides with your back straight. Lift the weights outward until your arms are aligned with your shoulder line. Hold for the count of five and release, returning to the starting position. Do three sets of five repetitions daily.

Step 2

Perform pushups regularly to help build muscle in your chest. Lying on your stomach, place your palms flat with your elbows bent at shoulder level. Straighten your legs behind you or rest your knees on the floor with your back straight. Lift yourself up with your palms and hold for the count of three. Lower your body back to starting position, repeating the process for two to three sets of five repetitions.

Step 3

Lie on your back on a bench or low table. Hold a 5 lb. weight in each hand with your arms outstretched beside you, parallel with your shoulders. Slowly lift your weights up above you until your arms meet, keeping them straight. Return your arms to starting position and repeat for three sets of 10 reps each.

Foods

Step 1

Eat plenty of fresh fruits, vegetables and whole grains to prevent overproduction of testosterone, which inhibits natural breast growth. It is mainly found in small increments in the female body. Women who overproduce testosterone soon develop male attributes such as minimal breast tissue.

Step 2

Consume plant estrogens such as soybeans, kidney beans and peas. These foods are rich in plant estrogens, which enhance your natural estrogen production. Estrogen is responsible for breast tissue growth. Plant estrogens are not the same as the synthetic estrogens used in hormone replacement therapies and have not been linked to breast cancer or other health concerns.

Step 3

Add fresh herbs to your daily diet through food or supplements. Fenugreek and wild yam have been touted as aids for breast growth by stimulating tissue growth. Saw palmetto helps increase digestion and distribute good fats from food to the breasts, while fennel increases milk production in young mothers, thus making the breasts appear larger.
