My sister is 23 and has underdeveloped breasts just small points no proper growth. She's really depressed about it, and we can't afford surgery. Are there any non-surgical options or treatments that could help with breast development?

Hormonal therapy may help slightly; otherwise, prosthetic bras or counseling are helpful alternatives.

I'm really curious about Ashwagandha and if it can actually help someone grow taller. Are there any side effects I should be worried about? Also, are there any home therapies you would recommend for increasing height?
Ashwagandha is an herb that is commonly used in traditional medicine for various health benefits, but there is no scientific evidence to support the claim that it can increase a person's height. As for side effects, Ashwagandha is generally considered safe for most people when taken in appropriate doses. However, some people may experience side effects such as upset stomach, diarrhea, and vomiting. There is no proven home therapy to increase height. Height is largely determined by genetics and factors such as nutrition and overall health during childhood and adolescence. If you have concerns about your height, it is best to consult with a healthcare provider for personalized advice.

I'm worried about starting cytomid because of its side effects and considering I don't even have high DHT. Can you help me with these concerns about medication and PCO?
