Many scientists find estrogen antagonistic effects without understanding the concept of stalling. They just test doses that are too high without knowing it. Especially with pure soy isoflavones, the stalling risk is very high.
The xanthohumol is a stalling dose too. 100 mg/kg body weight /day pure xanthohumol is huge. Multiply by your body weight to get an idea.
Thanks for the sanity check. I've stopped everything except Hops (Liquid Extract OR Dried Strobiles) and Testim. I think I screwed everything up by taking the Standardized SP twice a day (640 mg each time) Add to that the fact that I was taking Menohop with Soy and maybe the Soy was competing with receptors (my theory anyway) cause as I got deeper into days with SP and Menohop I felt/saw less signs when I took Hops. This is day 2 of nothing but hops/testim .... with the 1/2 life of SP being 19 hours AND the amount I was taking it may take a while to clear.
I'd like to add the FG back in ... I like the swelling ... it's a great "instant feedback" tool. Should I wait? Or is it OK to add it back now? I can wait if it will help me clear.
I also have to find a better way to eat my Dried Hops. I'm thinking of crushing them between my fingers or something "just before" I mix them with food. It will help even out the taste instead of hitting these "flowers of yuck" everytime I bite into one.

All I can say is YUMMY I guess there's still a horny little guy running around under these little boobs.
