Breast-enlargement options traditionally include implants and other invasive techniques by a plastic surgeon. Some women to take an alternative approach to breast enlargement, attempting many methods in their hopes for larger breasts. At-home methods might help increase bust size by at least one cup size while firming the breasts.

Step 1

Wear a well-fitted bra when exercising and performing daily activity. Well-fitted bras allow the breasts to develop tissue that supports the breast naturally. This will increase breast size somewhat while preventing sagging, which makes breasts look smaller. The worst thing you can do for your breasts is to go jogging without a sports bra, as the movement can permanently stretch ligaments that support the breasts according to Hazel Wilson, a bra fitter in the Beales chain of department stores.

Step 2

Exercise daily to strengthen the pectoral muscles that support the breasts. When you strengthen your pectorals, your breasts firm considerably and appear larger because of this new firmness, according to the Total Fitness website. The muscle mass you gain will cause size to appear to increase gradually, and you will have better support and posture with strong pectoral muscles. Holding a 5-pound weight in each hand, lift both arms over your head, and hold for a count of 10. Slowly return to starting position. Do 15 to 20 reps every day or every other day for best results. You can increase repetitions and add weight slowly as you progress.

Step 3

Take herbal supplements that increase hormone production in healthy women. Wild yam, saw palmetto, hops and fenugreek are herbs that increase estrogen production in women and stimulate breast-tissue growth, according to Dr. Jane Perez at HerbalLove.com. Always consult a doctor before taking herbal supplements, however--they might have side effects.

Step 4

Apply herbal breast-enhancement creams to your breasts once or twice a day. Massage the cream into the breasts to stimulate blood flow and increase estrogen levels in the body. Herbs such as fenugreek and wild yam contain phytoestrogens according to Natural Profiles, and in cream form are applied directly to the desired site to boost the hormones. This is similar to oral administration of these herbs.
