Estrogen plays a crucial role in ovarian tumorigenesis. Phytoestrogens (PEs) are a type of
daily dietary nutrient for humans and possess a mild estrogenic characteristic. This study …

Background While there is extensive literature evaluating the impact of phytoestrogen
consumption on breast cancer risk, its role on ovarian cancer has received little attention …

Background: Dietary intake of phytoestrogens has been inversely associated to hormone-
dependent cancers, such as prostate and breast cancers. Few studies have investigated the …

Background: Epidemiology studies have shown an inconclusive relationship between
phytoestrogen intake and ovarian cancer risk and there have been no relevant meta …

Phyto-oestrogens have been suggested to have a protective effect on hormone-sensitive
cancers. However, few studies have investigated the association between dietary phyto …

Background: The characterization of phytoestrogen intake and cancer risk has been
hindered by the absence of accurate dietary phytoestrogen values. Objective: We examined …

Phytoestrogens (PEs) have estrogen-like activity and were found to lower incidences of
several hormone-dependent cancers. Emerging evidence suggests that estrogen may play …

Intakes of specific nutrients and food groups have been shown previously to be related to
ovarian cancer risk, but no studies, to our knowledge, have emphasized the effect of …

For the past two decades, epidemiologists have observed lower risks of lung, breast,
prostate, colon, and other cancers in populations that frequently consume fruits and …

Experimental studies have revealed that phytoestrogens may modulate the risk of certain
sites of cancer due to their structural similarity to 17β‐estradiol. The present study …
