New saddle adjustment time?

I recently purchased a used cycle and have put about 100 or so miles on it. I have adjusted the saddle with the recommendations from a GCN video. I feel that it is becoming more comfortable but not all the way there yet. What is the normal adjustment period? Is it different for everyone? Should I go ahead and take it in and get it professionally adjusted? Thanks.

Depends on your butt, and the saddle - but it's gonna take more than 100 miles! MHO

Took more than a 1000 to meld my butt to a Brooks B-17, Selle AnAtomica, 1 ride, well maybe more than one, Specialized Body Geometry, several weeks at 150-200 miles per week..
