Does estroven cause cancer?
My friend recommended Estroven for my menopause symptoms. Before I try it, I'm wondering if there's any link between Estroven and an increased risk of cancer.

I totally get it, seeing all these scary discussions online about supplements can really freak you out. From what my gynecologist told me, these soy isoflavone supplements don't have the same risks as actual hormone therapy, but honestly, you should definitely talk to your doctor before starting. Just to be safe and put your mind at ease, na.

Please try not to worry too much. It is always best to consult a proper doctor who knows your family health history before taking any menopause supplements. They will guide you safely.

My mom was looking into this last year for her hot flashes and she had the exact same worry. She directly asked her doctor and he said there's no strong link with these plant-based ones, but still told her not to self-medicate. Better to just get a quick checkup done first.

I understand your fear, but these plant-based tablets generally don't carry those major risks. Still, if you want to be safe, you can try natural things like adding a little flaxseed to your daily diet and drinking mint tea. It worked wonders for my night sweats without any worry.

I am actually quite new to hearing about this supplement because my aunt was asking about it yesterday. Is it really safe for long-term use, or should one only take it for a few months? If anyone here has used it for a year or more, please let me know.
