Hope, try using the search button at the top of the screen to bring up past discussions on flaxseed as there have been quite a few I think. I personally take 2 tablespoons of freshly ground flaxseed each day mixed with hot 1/4 cup plain soy milk with a little Stevia and a little olive oil. I am strongly ER+ and PR+ Stage 1.

Here is a clinical trial that is now closed that was offered, and I don't know what the outcome was:

Macrobiotic Diet and Flax Seed: Effects on Estrogens, Phytoestrogens, & Fibrinolytic Factors

This study is no longer recruiting patients.

Purpose

This study will assess whether alternative, high phytoestrogen dietary interventions result in favorable effects on biological parameters that have been associated with hormone-dependent cancers, cardiovascular disease, and osteoporosis.
