Yes Susan,
For each hormone, learn the symptoms of excess or deficiency, and for each pair, learn the symptoms of imbalance either way. My mind can handle four herbs. A summary is here:

For the fifth one, flax, it took me four months of experiments to find out if I could add it, and I haven't even figured out the maximum and minimum dose yet. At the moment, I just fixed most doses, and steer with maca and goat's rue. This is my third day of higher oats, and I'll probably end up with a fixed dose too.
I haven't figured out the end of the cycle yet. From day 25, natural estrogens are at their lowest, and progesterone is zero. Run.Rabbit came up with a small dose of fenugreek, which adds just a little progesterone to prevent estrogen dominance. I wouldn't take maca or hops, they will make the estrogen dominance worse. As an anti-androgen, maybe try barley grass, yes. I expect no problems from upping prolactin after day 24.
