Is Soy Okay When Trying to Concieve?

Question

Hello,
I have read conflicting things about having soy when trying to get pregnant/when pregnant. Right now my fiance and I are trying. I am very lacrosse intolerant, and usually use almond milk products in coffee/cereal. I would like to use soy sauce in a recipe I found, and I would like to treat myself to a soy latte at Starbucks tomorrow...It has been several weeks. Is it okay to occasionally have soy? I keep going back and forth with guilt.

Answer

The thing with soy is that it mimics estrogen, so a lot of it can affect your hormones and possibly cause problems. A little soy sauce or some soy milk once in a while is fine.

Answer

I’m soy intolerant so it’s a definite no for me to have any, but I would stay away from it or just have a little here and there. The way that it mimics estrogen causes your body not to produce enough and can screw with your cycles and ovulation. Like I said though, a little here and there shouldn’t hurt anything

Answer

Yes it’s fine 😁
