Rooibos tea: Rooibos tea has some estrogen like effects usually it is considered negligible and less than soy products but depending on your receptors it may have a more pronounced effect .. Would stop if for a 2 weeks and see if symptoms resolve.If not please f/u immediately with a doctor. have there been other dietary changes or lifestyle changes? f/u w/ doc
