If you consider phytoestrogens to be estrogen, then yes.
Soy has binding to the estrogen receptor. But I do not know if it is closer to being a SERM (an extremely weak estrogen) or estradiol (a very strong estrogen).
I have mixed feelings about soy. Some really smart people (who happen to be physicians) think soy is really bad for men. But, I haven't seen hard evidence of said.
I have a hard time with milk, and I do like soy milk ... and if it doesn't seem to cause a problem for me...then, why not?
