How it works
Isoflavones bind weakly to oestrogen receptors, providing mild oestrogenic activity that may partially compensate for declining endogenous oestrogen levels.
Women with hormone-sensitive breast cancer should consult an oncologist before use. Quality varies significantly across supplement products.
Meta-analyses show soy isoflavones modestly reduce hot flush frequency (by 20–30%). Effect size is smaller than HRT but meaningful for those seeking natural alternatives.

“Some improvement but not as dramatic as I hoped. Might need longer to see full benefit. Still continuing.”
