I've read you should take spearmint tea the first 5 days on your period. It kinda makes sense to me as it is anti androgenic and you have more testosterone during your period. I also drink fennel tea I was thinking to buy spearmint tea and drink it on my period instead of fennel tea and drink fennel tea all the other days of my cycle. But I could be wrong when to take it. I would like to investigate this further as well.

Thank you for answering! 

I'm going to start drinking spearmint tea and see how it goes. I've heard some really good things about it; apparently you start to notice changes in 6 weeks. It even slows down unwanted hair growth. Have you noticed any (positive) changes from drinking fennel? 

I'm confused though about when our bodies produce more testosterone. Several sites and studies (like this one: 
http://med.monash.edu.au/sphpm/womenshealth/docs/testosterone-and-androgens-in-women.pdf) say that testosterone levels peak during the middle phase of the menstrual cycle, so around ovulation. 

I don't think we produce more testosterone during our period, because the more testosterone you have, the less you would have your period...the less "feminine" you would be, right? Maybe it doesn't matter when we drink the teas, as I don't think the amount of hormones/hormone balancing-substances they contain are extremely high. I'd like to know though if there's a right/wrong way!
