I started the general protocol about 3.5 weeks ago for a pregnancy via GS. I did NOT experience the breast changes with the 1/35 BCP so switched to Yasmin (generic brand) today. I am hoping to experience the changes in the next 2 weeks.
I also have hypoplasia. I had a breast augmentation done 12.5 years ago, with a reconstruction of the augmentation (1st time around was a botch job) 11.5 years ago. Implant are under the muscle and incisions are on the bottom of the breast.

1) My question is in regards to Goats Rue. I read a lot about it and hoping it will help with my breast growth. Do you start it when stopping the BCPs? And how soon after ... can I start the Goats Rue the 1st day off BCPs?

2) when exactly do I start pumping. Baby is due 6/8 but GS will not go past the 6/1 for delivery (due to age and 5th pregnancy) so we are expecting the birth to be the last week of May. My plans were to have the last BCP be on 4/15. When would I start pumping? Do i start immediately or do I wait 2 weeks? I was a little confused by the directions, how I was understanding it was to start pumping the 1st day of BCPs but wanted to clarify.

Hello,

The answer to your second question is that you would start pumping the last day you take the BCPs, so on 4/15.
