Why not bioidentical estrogen replacement, like gel?

If you are female- the menapause Vita Pak at GNC has all you need. Evening Primrose is a God send.

You're OK if you eat the whole soybean, of some sorta girlie food made from the whole bean.

Hexane is an astringent used in the oil/meal extraction process. The bean is ground up and washed with hexane. The hexane removes the oil and the solution is then heated causing the hexane to evaporate, leaving only the oil (and meal). The hexane is recaptured (except for 23 parts per million, apparently) and the whole process starts over.
