Guarana is a stimulant, very astringent
Passion Flower is good for insomnia and circular thinking, good for spasms and tremors.
Bilberry very good for vessels wall strength strengthens capillary integrity especially in the eyes.
Horsetail is rich in minerals very high in silica good for nails, skin and hair
Cayenne good for impaired circulation, increases blood flow, good pain reliever but may get initial flush to area or
hotness.
Here are my comments.
Some of these herbs work best fresh not dry.
Is the pill or cream going to get into the system and work at all?
Are the correct parts of the plant being used?
Is the amount you are getting in the pill or cream therapeutically active and is there enough in the pill or cream to work,
if they could work?
Will they do anything, are you throwing your money away?
You probably already know my opinions on this subject of breast enlargement, if not read my other answers online,
this is one of the most asked question next to weight loss. I am afraid there is not an herbal answer.
Hope this helps.

POST MENOPAUSE
QUESTION: I am a 55 year old female who had taken birth control pills for years. Last year I went off the pill. I still
have all my parts. I have found that my libido and some off my strength have gone. I am currently
taking progonol ( a creme made up from women's international phamacy) which is a form of progestrone.
I also started taking black cohash (3 capsules of 40mg of standardised a day. I am finding myself a little
nausea, and not a lot of increase in my libido. Any suggestions?
ANSWER: Black Cohosh can cause this side effect, take it with meals to alleviate it.
