Thanks Susan,
Food for thought
How much maca you can take depends on an enzyme: if you have enough aromatase to make estradiol from testosterone, you can take more maca (DHEA, or dehydroepiandrosterone):

If you get to the limit of your aromatase, you'll break out.
The shoots go away before I take the fenugreek, and the fenugreek itself causes no swelling. It should. But before June, I used to take 10,000 mg on the day of the party. Maybe I need to try that again, or the batter.
Circulation can be the reason too, yes: got the shoots while I was walking and running. But after dinner, I don't exercise. I'll try if that helps swelling from FG.
Prettymama may have lower testosterone than we have, but I think she takes too much SP. Because of SP, she makes no DHT out of testosterone. DHT is necessary for sex drive.
Prettymama's program also misses something that increases estrogen for growth. There is only hops, Wild Yam, or PM. The WY should work for her, because she was an E during breastfeeding: her ovaries know how to make lots of estrogens, and they did it before
I tried flax with hops before, but that was no success:

You are absolutely right that I should tune FG first, and try flax and oats later. I will use these symptoms to get prolactin right by adjusting FG:
