This s*cks. I need to take soy as part of my hormone replacement therapy.

Why not bioidentical estrogen replacement, like gel?

I’m on bioidentical estradiol. Specific low doses of oral soy isoflavones have been proven to stabilize SHBG (sex hormone binding globulin) which balances excessive testosterone.

Given the effects of this hormone regime, I’m stunned anyone would give children soy especially boys.
