RE: prococious puberty

[Guest guest]

all the precocious puberty cases that I have seen in the media were not

vegetarians. I also have an overweight neice who started menstrating at

around 9-10 years old but this was due to her weight and she is not diagnosed

nor do I believe she has the condition of precocious puberty and her family

is not vegetarians at all, nor do they eat or drink soy (perhaps hydrogenated

soybean oil in premade foods they might buy)

 

And a some years back (1989) a friend of mine had a son born with his urethra

not located at the end of his penis (this was not a vegetarian family boy was

born to, his parents consumed what was thought to be a healthy diet of dairy

and meat and the only soy was soy sauce stuff) I thought this was a genetic

defect until late1997 or early 1998 when I saw an episode on the news about

an epidemic of this happening to boys due to excess estrogens from pesticide

pollutions.

 

If pollution can estrogenize boys perhaps percocious puberty is estrogenized

girls from pollution too.

 

I also want to add that I had trouble with short luteal phases of my menstral

cycle due to excess polutions that I believe was caused by eating lots of

chicken meat in my diet. (I thought chicken, fish and dairy was healthy) I

had estrogen interfering with my levels of progestrone which are supposed to

be high at least dominate for 11 days after ovulation in order to sustain a

pregnancy until the fetus produces enough HCG hormone to maintain the

pregnancy to term.

 

Also, I was not on any birth control pill or pregnant but I developed the

" pregnancy mask " on my face. And my fertility was impared and when I became

a complete vegetarian and ate organic and whole grained foods that problem

disappeared and never came back. (in fact I originally became a complete

vegatarian so that I could help my fertility and eventually get pregnant, and

it worked)

 

I am no expert on precocious puberty but I have seen the effects of excess

estrogen and non of this was related to soy foods in the myself or the people

or the very few people I have met with excess estrogen.

 

another experience I learned about estrogen is that it seems to be elimanated

in the bowel system and constipation seems to recycle the estrogen back into

the system.

 

Maybe increasing water might flush excess estrogen from your daughters body.

Just a theory that might be helpful.

 

I know this is not expert information but it is the truth as I experienced

Doh! <dohdriver

one more thing (was: Precocious Puberty)

 

Bea,

Also, you might want to read this as a reasoned, well-written response to

the anti-soy hype.
