18/20! I got the dairy one and the testosterone one wrong (idk every part of the science lol. but I know now!)

Thank you for making this test! It's very important that people know these things because there are lots of myths and misconceptions about periods and things of that nature, so it's good that more people are being aware. Wonderful work!
