It does, and it can also lower thyroid function. I wound up on thyroid replacement hormone because I was drinking too much soy milk. Much of the soy processing is problematic if you're trying to avoid industrialized foods. There are a lot of sites that explain these issues, so it shouldn't be hard to find one if you're interested.

Soy does not increase estrogen and I wish people would stop spreading this misinformation. Also, your situation is anecdotal and thus insignificant for trying to prove some point. I drink a gallon of soy milk a week and tofu and tempeh almost daily. Never had a problem with anything, best shape of my life, and highest test levels ever.
Wish harder; it isn't working.

There are lots of sites that describe everything these days. 4chan being one example. I was looking for something that had some scientific credibility.

Examine.com is probably the best resource out there for science based nutrition information.
Thanks that was the sort of thing I was looking for. (Including references is always a plus).
