Hi Stellapan,
For fenugreek, I'd say at least 2,000 mg dried, powdered seed. For WY probably more.
Fennel seed, as tea, works at 500 mg already. At 2,000 mg, I noticed progesterone dominance symptoms. Clear thinking, and an edgy, easily irritated feeling.
Turmeric is twice as strong, according to the table, but it is in table 2 too: it binds to estrogen receptors too, and will add to the effects of PM.
You could try nutmeg instead, or oregano, which is again twice as strong, and a lot friendlier in taste. I have both here, but I must say I've never had the courage to make tea from a few 100 mg of either to try it out.
They say Nostradamus got high on nutmeg to write his prophecies. Now for that, he really must have taken a lot. I asked a friend how he did it. She said he sniffed it
