While estrogen can be a problem if you have BRCA2, If you don’t, then it is actually a benefit if used in high doses. If you are to take estradiol instead of ADT for Reducing testosterone levels the estradiol at least keeps some of your sexual desire active unlike ADT. It also has many fewer side effects than ADT.
Dual Action: Estrogen can have a dual role, acting as a potential promoter of early cancer development, but in some clinical scenarios, high-dose estrogen has been used to treat advanced prostate cancer by lowering androgen levels.
A search AI says this
Soybean products do not produce high levels of human estrogen in the body. Due to their weak nature, they often have a protective, anti-estrogenic effect rather than a boosting
I’m wondering, where are you found that estrogen creation is a problem with soy?
