Don't know the answer to this. Tried a little searching but came away unsure, like you. Seems there is some evidence, but it's not really strong. I think that it's probably OK to have the tea once in a while but you probably want to avoid drinking it every day.
By the way, I've read that licorice can lower testosterone too. I think it's bad to have too much anyway because it can affect blood pressure.
