They pump animals full of actual, bioavailable estrogen to accelerate their maturity and breeding capabilities. You drink the milk, the livestock drink the milk, you eat the livestock, the livestock get ground up and fed to each other, and your sister gets tits at 9.
I buy the shit about the water, though.

>>11112703
Phytoestrogens act a little differently. Some of their effects are estrogenic, some are anti-estrogenic, and some are just not associated with either estrogenic or anti-estrogenic effects. Some studies have said breast cancer patients shouldn't eat onions, some have said it improves survival.
I'm not saying it does or doesn't have feminizing effects. I'm just saying that phytoestrogens, the estrogen in animals, and the shit in your water bottle are all a little different.

This is for Japanese women of child-bearing age though which no one in this thread is. Also testosterone is converted to estrogen via aromatase. It could be the soi did infact lower testosterone levels which was just enough to affect the estrogen levels too. What I've learned is that the endocrine system is very intricate and interrelated. One small yet meaningful change can affect the entire system.

prolactin is the only thing out of bounds, and it's still relatively within range to only cause an eyebrow raise from the reviewer.

Something you need to know about blood chemical composition tests is that they are hugely specific to -just you-
You would need to create a viable baseline by having multiple tests taken under the same conditions, that is, you ate regularly of the same type of diet, physically performed consistently across that time, and all other variables. Only then can future tests indicate to a doctor that something might be wrong or could go wrong.

Looking at lab average ranges for one or two tests is a big nothing. Different labs have different limits set, and also have different indicators for potential problems. A standard urinalysis sent to 5 labs would just leave everyone confused, and all the doctors who regularly use each individual lab would have to waste a lot of time together to come to "Results inconclusive - patient needs more testing (has nothing wrong)"

tl;dr You're fine and the 99% likelihood is further tests under the same variable would yield standard results.

Exposing your body to the hormones it produces naturally, it will try to achieve a balance again, producing less hormones itself.
