Is there a connection with the soy? Or just a coincidence? BTW - haven't had the hot flashes in a couple of months, but they were pretty annoying in the winter and early spring.

It could be that the soy milk elevated your estrogen level enough for you to have a cycle. I've heard that can also happen to women who go off HRT, and are not in full-blown menopause yet.
Did it happen this month? Maybe you should cut back on the soy milk for awhile? |
