Isoflavones produce a type of plant estrogen that is much weaker than human estrogen. It is very important to note that plant estrogen is not the same as human estrogen, and it does not stimulate the body to make human estrogen

While soy does not contain estrogen, it does contain non-steroidal plant compounds called phytoestrogens. These produce some similarity of effect. These compounds are sometimes called dietary estrogens. They can sometimes, mildly mimic estrogen.

How does estrogen effect the prostate?

Asked by Wiki User

As a general term "cancer" means that some abnormal cells are present in a particular part of your body. All the cells of our body have their own "program" to live, but cancer cells do not follow this program.

The same happens with prostate cancer, it is characterized by the presence of abnormal prostate cells (cancer cells), causing the damages to prostate and other symptoms.

These cells are capable to multiply very fast, increasing their number and the tumor size. Because of this, the normal prostate cells are suppressed and cannot function properly.

When a man has prostate cancer, his PSA (prostate specific antigen) levels will rise. In many cases of prostate cancer, the prostate gland is removed.
