Soy has phyto-estrogens, and I try to keep my soy consumption down because I apparently already have more than enough estrogen. I have (and have always had) very bad cramps with my periods, and the periods themselves tend to be slightly on the heavier side. I do not have endometriosis. My experience is pretty much identical to my Mom's experience, and she had testing that confirmed the excess of estrogen. This also apparently means that I will not hit menopause until my late 50s (Mom was 59!).
Keep in mind that this is just my experience, and shouldn't be taken as advice for others. Also, none of this has been confirmed with medical testing, since I am not having any serious problems.
