It is a misunderstanding to eat soy products to supplement estrogen. Many health articles have said that estrogen is very important to women. Women should eat more soybean milk and bean products, supplement estrogen and delay aging. It is said that isoflavones contained in soybeans are estrogen-like substances, which can make up for the deficiency of estrogen in the body and can also be adjusted in two directions. Drinking 500 ml of soybean milk or eating more than100g of bean products, such as tofu, soybean milk and yuba, can effectively regulate endocrine function and promote estrogen to return to normal level. Hearing this, there seems to be some truth. In fact, this theory has a major flaw, and I don't know how many people have been killed. First of all, we should know that there are more than 20 kinds of hormones in women, including three hormones, 70% estrogen, 23% progesterone and 7% androgen. Only when these 20 hormones are balanced can women be healthy and stay away from gynecological tumors and cancer. What if only estrogen is increased, regardless of the balance of other hormones? It will lead to breast hyperplasia or other gynecological tumors. Why do you say that? Let's talk about the cause of breast hyperplasia first. The etiology of breast fibrocystic hyperplasia is mostly due to the increase of relative or absolute value of estrogen, the decrease of relative or absolute value of progesterone, or the imbalance between them. In other words, breast hyperplasia is the relative production of estrogen in the body, which is out of balance with lutein. After hyperplasia, the breast tissue is incomplete, which leads to the structural disorder of the breast, which is called lobular hyperplasia of the breast. Some people say that I have hyperplasia of mammary glands. Do I have a high estrogen level? Don't! Your high estrogen level means that your estrogen level is high relative to your progesterone level, but in fact your estrogen level is already very low in the normal value. At the same time, your progesterone level is lower. This is because many women have hyperplasia of mammary glands, but at the same time they are accompanied by menstrual disorder, fatigue, cold, low libido, hot flashes and excessive sweating, sexual pain, vaginal relaxation, dryness, pruritus vulvae, dry skin, increased pigmentation, obvious wrinkles, heavy facial pigmentation, acne and nameless papules. Some people say, can drinking soybean milk improve the level of estrogen? It's possible. But why is it clear that the estrogen level of this woman is already very low, and the mammary gland hyperplasia has grown after drinking soy milk? This is because soybean milk can only increase the estrogen in her body relatively, but progesterone has not increased relatively. Because soybean milk can't balance progesterone, it still causes involution of breast tissue hyperplasia, and the structure of breast is still chaotic. Therefore, drinking soybean milk, including eating soybean isoflavones, can not solve the problem of estrogen and progesterone balance in breast hyperplasia. And the stomach is not good, women with cold stomach can't drink soy milk, and there may be stomach problems. Because beans are cold foods, people with cold stomachs will have diarrhea and bloating after eating them. Understandably, many women drink a cup of soybean milk every day, but estrogen has not improved, but breast hyperplasia has appeared. She still doesn't understand what's going on. That's what my blog friends do. She has some breast hyperplasia. Later, I heard that women should drink more soy milk and supplement estrogen, so they bought a soymilk machine, a cup of soy milk every morning and a bowl of bean products or tofu at night. She thinks it's food anyway, and eating it will definitely do no harm to her health. Not long after this, the lump in the breast began to get bigger and bigger, and the whole breast basically became a hard pimple. In her original words, she was worried that it would explode one day. I told her to take care of her ovaries and stop eating soy milk, bean products and milk. A week later, the breast pain was relieved. After using it for three months now, there is little redness and pain, and the lump on her breast has gradually softened. In short, it is developing in a good direction. She is unhappy. She will never drink soybean milk again. It seems that it is very dangerous to simply supplement any kind of hormone, even if it is food supplement. Only by improving ovarian function, dilating capillaries, improving local blood supply, activating, improving and enhancing ovarian physiological function. It is safest to let the ovaries secrete estrogen and progesterone suitable for their own needs, that is, neither high nor low.
