What role do phytoestrogens in plant-based foods play in balancing hormones for women with PCOS"?
hytoestrogens, which are naturally occurring plant compounds found in foods like soy, flaxseeds, and legumes, play a significant role in balancing hormones for women with PCOS. These compounds mimic the effects of estrogen in the body by binding to estrogen receptors, which can help regulate hormonal fluctuations often seen in PCOS. In women with PCOS, where estrogen and androgen imbalances are common, phytoestrogens can act as modulators, either enhancing or dampening estrogenic activity as needed. This balancing effect may help alleviate symptoms like irregular menstrual cycles and hormonal acne. For a deeper dive into how a plant-based diet, rich in phytoestrogens and other nutrients, can support hormonal health in PCOS, check out this resource: How a Plant-Based Diet Can Help with Hormonal Balance in PCOS.
