Hi Sir, Does regular consumption of Flax seeds raise the normal estrogen level in women and cause heavy menstruation with pain?

Question

Regularly eating flaxseeds may help make ovulation more regular. A study published in 1993 in "The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism" found that women who regularly ate flaxseed powder ovulated during every menstrual cycle, but when these women followed their regular low-fiber diet they didn't ovulate during three out of 36 menstrual cycles. The phase of the menstrual cycle between ovulation and the start of the menstrual period, called the luteal phase, was also longer when the women consumed flaxseed powder. Having a short luteal phase is sometimes associated with infertility.
