Hi ssag124,
Yucca contains the same amount of phyto-estrogens as hops, but eight times more phyto-progestins:

And Karen,
I think they just don't count hops as a dietary plant then. I'm pretty sure there is xanthohumol in dried hops.
You could also try an experiment with hops but without testim. I was thinking about your post from yesterday. It would be perfectly normal not to notice any phyto-estrogen effect from hops, on top of all the estrogens you get out of conversion of testosterone from testim by aromatase.
In the end, no amount of literature is going to tell you as much as good experiments on your own body.
