In the study of the cross-sectional relationships of soy
product intake and serum testosterone, estrone, estradiol, sex
hormone-binding globulin, and dihydrotestosterone in 69
Japanese men, posted in US National Library of Medicine National Institutes of Health, indicated that,Soy product
intake was estimated from a semiquantitative food frequency
questionnaire. Serum estradiol concentration was significantly inversely
correlated with soy product intake (r = -0.32, p = 0.009), and serum estrone concentration was nonsignificantly inversely correlated with soy
product intake (r = -0.24, p = 0.05) after controlling for age, body
mass index, smoking status, and ethanol intake. Total and free
testosterone concentrations were inversely correlated with soy
product intake after controlling for the covariates, but these
correlations were of border line significance (r = -0.25, p = 0.05 and r
= -0.25, p = 0.06, respectively).
