Gender: | I would recommend soy protein shakes for her. They are better for women. Other than that, it's basically the same process for a female as a male. |

Gender: | Yeh that seems right soy does contain estrogen in it and with her working out her test level might increase so it might even it out. Thanks |

Gender: | The most important thing is to make sure she's on a good overall diet and exercise program. A protein shake is OK if she can't get enough through diet, but it won't make or break her gains. |

| Diet and exercise both are very necessary for gaining muscles. You can also use Protein supplement. |
