A member asked:
Do strawberries have estrogen?
8 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No.: Estrogen is derived from cholesterol, and plants do not make or contain cholesterol. Other cholesterol derived hormone families include androgens (testosterone), progesterones, glucocorticoids (cortisol), mineralocortcoids (aldosterone), and vitamin d compounds. They are found only in animal-derived foods, and some mushrooms/fungi.

Not significant : 100 grams of strawberries have about 50 micrograms of phytoestrogens. This is not really enough to be significant.
