Hi Karen,
Don't know either. Did you have the high libido after the spearmint too? After all, you are taking 1 1/2 tubes of testim. I'm pretty sure hops blocks 5α-reductase type 1 well, but I'm not so sure about type 2 and the other three isozymes of 5α-reductase. I think SP blocks both types 1 and 2. So the type 2 may have released SP, and could be available for making some DHT from the testosterone.
