A member asked:
I took biotin as d biotin neutrifactor for hairs nd nails but i am affaird that it increase your breast size.is it true?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not true: I know of no evidence that biotin has any effect on breast size. While important for healthy hair and nails, biotin deficiency is not common so it is not all that likely to help much, but some people do believe it can help and it is very safe to try it. See http://draxe.com/biotin-benefits/ for more info.
