I spoke with my doctor about my symptoms, she said the soy-estrogen would not cause this. I'm afraid I may have developed a soy allergy now.  :-[ I'll speak with my allergist next week.

I'm sure there's no shortage of the Mercola-esque versions out there on the internet. 

Whatever the case not at all related to soy allergy or allergy in general.

High doses of soy mimic estrogen; it's why products with soy isoflavones are recommended for menopause symptom relief. 

Now you tell me!

First of all, hi and welcome!

High doses of soy mimic estrogen; it's why products with soy isoflavones are recommended for menopause symptom relief. 

I have no idea how much soy you are consuming and what your symptoms are, but this is probably something you should probably discuss with your physician.

Good luck!

Since I have nut allergies, I have been eating soy butter & apples. Every day for months. I've noticed lately some unusual symptoms, but couldn't figure out why. I mentioned to someone that I wondered if I'd been eating to much soy, since it's a bean, & they told me that it contains estrogen. Does anyone know anything about this? Should I talk to my doctor or dietician? I am avoiding soy for now.
