Many women are willing to go under the knife to get bigger breasts. But, there are risks associated with breast implant surgery which includes breast implant rupture, visible lumps or rippling in the breasts, complications arising due to anaesthesia, infections, haematoma and haemorrhage, medical complications such as thyroid problems or fibromyalgia.
This seems quite risky, right? So, why not go the natural way to increase your breast size by eating foods high in oestrogen?
Foods like sesame seeds, flax seeds, soya beans etc., are rich in phytoestrogen (plant-based oestrogen), which will help stimulate your oestrogen level to the maximum thus helping in breast growth. A regular consumption of these healthy oestrogen foods will give you good results in no time.
The other good thing about these oestrogen foods is the vitamins they contain. These powerful vitamins not only help with breast development but improve your breast health too.
How Does Oestrogen Help Breast Growth?
Eating oestrogen rich foods is the best way to increase your breast size. Oestrogen is the female hormone which is responsible for making your body curvy and your breasts look bigger. During puberty, the hormone oestrogen is needed in greater amounts to transform the body of a girl into a woman. This hormone triggers your menstrual cycle which makes your body curvier and increases your breast growth.
From the age of 12 to 16, a woman’s body has a high amount of oestrogen and this is the time when the body undergoes various changes. However, when puberty stops, the levels of oestrogen in the body is reduced leaving your breasts to remain in the same size throughout your life.
So, in order to make your breasts look bigger even after puberty you just have to eat oestrogen rich foods.
1. Soy
Soy milk is an excellent source of isoflavones that imitate the female hormone oestrogen which increases the growth of breast tissue. Soy milk is made from soybeans which can also be consumed for increasing breast growth. In addition, the intake of soy products is associated with reduced breast cancer risk, according to a study [1].
Drink a glass of soy milk every morning and add soybeans in your salads or boil them and have them in the morning.
2. Fennel Seeds
Traditionally, herbalists have used fennel seeds to improve the health of the breast in lactating mothers. The seeds of the fennel plant are rich in phytoestrogens which are important for breast augmentation. Fennel seeds are also known to contain natural plant hormones, flavonoids and different aromatic molecules like estragole, anethole and fenshon which help in developing breast tissues and increase milk secretion.
3. Milk
Milk and other dairy products contain similar reproductive hormones as found in our body. For instance, cow milk is known to contain all the hormones like oestrogen, prolactin and progesterone which are important for milk production. As milk contains oestrogen, it can also help in the growth of breasts. Boil a glass of milk and drink it in the morning and at night.
4. Beetroots and beet greens
Everyone knows that beetroots are rich in iron, but apart from that both beetroots and beet greens have a good amount of oestrogen and contain boron, which helps in the synthesis of oestrogen in the body. This supplements your body with oestrogen, thus promoting breast growth naturally.
5. Nuts
Nuts with high oestrogen or phytoestrogen content include pistachios, walnuts, cashews, peanuts and pecans. Pistachios are ranked on top of the phytoestrogen content list. Almonds, cashews and walnuts are also a very good source of phytoestrogens that will give you the extra dose of oestrogen in the body.
6. Papaya
Papaya is another fruit rich in oestrogen. In fact, drinking papaya juice with milk is considered a good natural remedy to increase your breast size naturally. However, ensure that you don’t drink it in excess as it may cause diarrhoea. Pregnant women shouldn’t consider drinking this concoction as well.
If you are lactose intolerant, consume slices of papaya after a meal.
7. Fenugreek seeds
Fenugreek seeds are another food that is rich in phytoestrogen which promotes better mammary gland growth. We have always thought that these seeds are only good for weight loss and enhance hair growth.

You can either have one tsp fenugreek seeds daily or apply herbal fenugreek oil on your breasts and massage it.
8. Seafood
Eating seafood like prawns, oysters, and shellfish can induce growth of breasts. Do you know how? These seafood contain good amounts of manganese that triggers sex hormones in the body and as a result the breast size increases. Include these foods in your daily diet and see the results for yourself!.
9. Olive oil
Olive oil is rich in antioxidants like vitamin E that helps in protecting the body from free radical damage. Massaging olive oil on the breast keeps the skin of your breasts moisturised and firm that helps with the overall appearance of your bust. Choose a high-quality olive oil and apply a few drops on the breast and massage it with your hands in circular motion.
