Hi Isabelle,
I feel much better today just a little tired..like lazy tire.. anyway as for the green tea, I dont think I mentioned that in my thread and dont see why I would when I dont drink it cause I cant handle it..makes me more wired then coffee..I mentioned my green mix drink...As for what dave mentioned I believe if you have too much iodine you can develope a thyroid problem not sure if it would be hypo or hyper.. I believe with my green mix drink which I dont drink everyday it has iodine in it... I dont think iodine is my problem..if your hormones are unbalanced it can effect your thyroid and as does adrenals can effect thyroid, hormones..so on.. it is more like which came first the chicken or the egg...sucks..but I know my hormones make my mood change..IMO from all my reading that the adrenals, hypothalmus, cotisol are very important but anyone one of those can effect each other and as does the hormones and the hormones can effect them and other things...so bottom line or my point is that any hormone in balance can mess a number of things as can adrenal fatigue can mess hormones, as can low or high cortisol and so on..IMO too much sugar/carbs can mess more then hormones up..it can mess alot up..like I have said before everything in balance..
Not sure the reason I feel better today is because I got sleep.. I did take a PM today no maca..yes Isabelle you are right too much estrogen..so no maca ..I may just take maca every so often to use it up but I dont think I want to keep it in my life as a regular thing at this time..I will start it on and off in a few days or so..see how I feel.. Oh and yes estrogen suppresses the thyroid..

The link I list below said this about estrogen and other things that effect the thyroid...if you have time read it from the beginning ..interesting:
High estrogen levels lead to excessive production of thyroid-binding globulin (TBG) by the liver. If the TBG levels are high it will bind more thyroid hormones, thus reducing the free thyroid hormones available in the blood. Therefore, thyroid hormones cannot be used by the cells that require them for maintaining the body’s metabolism.
Although there are enough thyroid hormones in the blood, they are not taken up by the body’s cells as they are inactivated by TBG. Estrogen dominance therefore often leads to thyroid problems in women. This is one of the reasons why blood tests reveal ‘normal’ levels of thyroid hormones in such situations, but some women still show classical symptoms of thyroid problems.

Ok high cortisol means rashes and breakout, infections etc..right? if so then from how it is all going I believe I maybe be just fine..actually better then usual cause I am near my peak and today I feel just slightly tired and my body pains arent bad at all..I am liking the PM and taking also for the DHT blocker and as for that if is working along with my breakouts..I think I broke out the other day from the fluctuation of hormones and changing my face wash routine..
Hey also I am feeling some tingling here and there..so even having a slight elevation of estrogen..if I get a headach today then I think tomorrow I will not take PM cause if I get some symptoms without any other herbs then the PM today then that would mean I have a decent amount of estrogen at this point..what I am saying is with no maca and just 1 PM today and I get estro dom signs then I will stop the PM for at least the next 2 days or more..also IMO I think maca is testosterone elevator from what you wrote.. you said testosterone ups estrogen..well I think that is what maca does..also I get more chin hairs when I take maca..not with PM and supposely estrogen dom can bring that on with women from the androgens..so the PM may help so...haha funny you mention SP cause I was thinking of using it again but waiting to see how it goes with the PM and diet..
