Hi Susan,
I don't really know about hops and soy together. The phyto-estrogens in soy are two weak ones, genistein and daidzein. But hops and soy are in Eve M's program, and she grew on it. When I get around to it, I'll do some soy experiments. I plan to use it in the morning, because it sets the biological clock to daytime, after hops set it to night time by actvating the melatonin receptor.
Hops always makes me sleepy, but only for an hour or so. After that, I can wake up with a clear mind. In the beginning, I had very vivid dreams from hops too. I had pain shoots during massage the first month, but the growth spurt since September went without pains. Both you and Soonenough get swelling. I wake up with swelling too, but I always thought that was from my evening cup of goat's rue tea. I always take hops with complex carbs, because I read - can't remember where - it does something to insulin, yes. I think you don't get sleepy if you use hops with soy: soy sets the clock back to day time. That's why I think Eve could take the hops in the morning without needing a nap right away.
In men, high prolactin decreases libido. My sex drive is highest in the morning, before the first cup of goat's rue tea, and even before the maca. So if you stop goat's rue tea, you'll be thinking about your man all the time
