i dropped that from my routine nearly a month ago and i think that was a mistake. i was doing ok with taking that but this month it seemed like nothing was happening. i have started sp again. i take 400mg three times a day and im an A cup. do u think that dose is sufficient or should i ramp up? any advice will be appreciated.

I have been on SP nearly one month which I added to WU and have found it to be very good, I take 540mg three times a day, I get pains every morning, and throughout the day and my boobs definately look better.
Not sure what the highest dosage is daily I'm guessing it could be 1600mg daily. some-one else will I'm sure help you on this. but I think keep on it for a while.
Good Luck

That should be enough, but you can check what the dosage is on the bottle and if you can still go up you could try 4x400 in a month or two to see if that works better.

The SP capsules I am taking are 1600mg each, of which I am taking one daily. The bottle says it is the clinical dosage, and says on the back that the extract replicates the therapeutic dose in published clinical trials.

I don't think 1600mg is the max dosage, but I do believe that especially when it is mixed with other herbs, (internally even more so) that you probably wouldn't want to take too much more in a day. I do however, wish that I could take it throughout the day rather than all at once to regulate my intake through the day...so maybe aim to take less, more often?

Both Lisa and Laura have quoted this amount...

Hope this helps :)

My bottle says take 2-3 capsules a day...and each capsule contains 400mg. Im taking 3 Capsules a day, 1 x morning, 1 afternoon, and 1 x night. So most of us suggest around the same sort of figure...1500mg (mine is 1200mg). Good Luck! :)
