Brief Answer:
Diet

Detailed Answer:
What about weight and height. Why was growth hormone used?
Estrogen is primarily responsible for development of breast. Majority of breast is made from fat cells. So conditions with high estrogen and excess weight gain can cause breast enlargenent.

You should reduce her fat and calorie intake. Promote some weight loss.

Opt for organic chicken rather than estrogen fed fatty chicken. Eat lots of fruits and vegetables. Cut down red meat, pastries, high calorie drinks, and fast food.

Brief Answer:
Did you discuss with GP?

Detailed Answer:
Her weight is appropriate for her height. I did mention that she used growth hormone. Even that has a growth promoting effect on breasts.

Encourage healthy eating. No other herbal/homeopathic medication is required. They do not reduce breast size. The other option is breast reduction surgery.

Again, the size perception of breasts can be highly individual as well. Did you discuss this matter with your family doctor or GP?
