I'd start fenugreek now. Hops and testim may make you estrogen dominant. Fenugreek is the best prevention. The SP probably doesn't make much of a difference now, since it's just being replaced by hops. If you did have an anti-estrogenic effect from it, you may become estrogen dominant as the SP is metabolized. So either way, the fenugreek won't hurt.
I tried to rub the hops strobiles to bits, but they're not that loose. My new batch is neat little leaves again. I wonder how they do that.
Does it make sense to wait until I feel the excess estrogen so I know what's happening ..... BTW I had a double tea bag mug of spearmint tea around an hour ago and I'm feeling a bit of a headache now .... and if I should start FG how much and how often (base it on your weight ... I'll adjust to mine based on that)
Thanks sweetie .... karen
