I have been drinking soy milk for 6months and in that time I have only had my period one time...help?!


Question: I have been drinking soy milk for 6months and in that time I have only had my period one time...help.?
I am 16 and got my period when I was 14 and it was extremely irregular for the first year and then I started drinking soy milk, which I know has estrogen in it or whatever. So do you think the soy milk has caused me to "loose" my period.? I mean I don't really care b/c who wants a period anyway, right.? haha! I am thinking about getting off of soy milk though if it could be the problem.Health Question & Answer

perhaps the best way to tell is to stop drinking soy milk for a while and see what happens. also ask your doctor!Health Question & Answer

Visit with your OBGYN. Too much soy consumption is not recommended, since it does affect your estrogen levels. I can't say for sure that your monthly cycle was affected by the soy specifically, but then I would not rule it out. That's a pretty long time without a period. I'd get a check up if I were you and ask your doctor about soy consumption. I myself am very careful about the amounts I take. I drink it once per week with a protein powder drink. When I'm approaching my time of month, I will increase this a little, but not much. I am that careful about how much soy I put in me.Health Question & Answer

soy milk is filled I mean filled with estrogen...so you are putting way too much added hormones into your body. Your hormones are off balance. Soy is not a very good alternative to milk and dairy. google the effects that too much soy can do to your body.Health Question & Answer

You're probably just underweight. I would honestly go see a gynecologist to see what's going on. I don't think soymilk is the problem.Health Question & Answer
