Estrogen dominance, thyroid, and soy

I read that some women were having problems with soy. I was wondering what your symptoms were when your body rejected the soy. I love to eat soy chips. I have never had a problem. But I haven’t been eating them lately. I have been swelling and gaining. So maybe my body needs the soy. Please discuss this soy issue more.

    I would see an endocrinologist and have a check-up.

    For more information, Google “soy and thyroid.”

    Note that the sites which frantically try to dismiss the research are sites which have “soy” in their titles. It’s big business, right, now, but it’s big business which can be detrimental to one’s hormonal health as well as metabolic disorders.

    I generally get very nauseous and feel flu-ish. I have typical progesterone deficiency symptoms (do a Google search for “progesterone deficiency symptom”…I can’t recall the site I found them at). Progesterone deficiency is pretty much the same thing as estrogen dominance in that you don’t have enough progesterone to counteract the amount of estrogen in your body. Soy is only one of a LOT of things that create estrogen in your body.
