Breast growth during adolescence
Breast growth is one of the most notorious signs that adolescence has begun. They develop in a process that will take about five or six years to complete. Breast growth starts as early as 8 or 9 years of age for some women, whereas for others it will not begin until they become 13 or 14.
When the period starts, estrogen, a hormone, commands the breast to develop, and so fat tissue begins to accumulate around the milk ducts that form the mammary gland. The aureole becomes more defined, and the nipples develop. The function of the nipple is to connect all the milk ducts, in order to produce the milk in case breast-feeding occurs.
Generally, around 35 there is an involution in the fatty tissue of the breast. That is to say, the breast looses some of the fatty tissue, and the breast line declines.
Nevertheless, there are means to stimulate the body to generate breast growth, like it used to happen during adolescence. A new generation of creams and pills contain a number of active ingredients that generate the hormone cycle that took place during adolescence, thus creating actual breast tissue.
The active ingredients present in these products are phytosterols, that is to say, hormone-like substances that trigger the same hormonal reaction that developed during adolescence. New fatty tissue accumulates in the layer between the skin and the mammary gland. A perkier, fuller breast line is possible, even when adolescence was a few decades ago.
