«These results suggest that phytoestrogens can interfere with the normal
estrogen feedback mechanisms with respect to release of gonadotropin in the ewe... although most studies into the
effects of phytoestrogens have concentrated on changes in the reproductive tract, there are indications that they interfere with the hormone balance between the ovaries and the hypothalamo - adenohypophysical system... ewes on phytoestrogens have shown follicular abnormalities such as numerous small follicles, deficient antrum formation and signs of early atresia... it is possible that the permanent changes brought about
by phytoestrogens in the brain are a result of these compounds interacting with
estrogen receptors in this tissue, and subsequently influencing the re-synthesis or replenishment of cyto - plasmic
estrogen receptors... phytoestrogens can interfere with the delicate feedback mechanisms involved in the release of the gonadotrophins.»
