I do not think any studies have been performed on it, but they may have. Studying it is both taboo from the governments end, pharmaceuticals end, and foods end. As all 3 entities have a vested interest in not finding out the answer to this. Pharmaceuticals because they profit from your misery, fixing diet does not improve pharmaceutical profits, it hurts them. Big food doesn't want to fix it because they are trying to use the cheapest materials possible in order to cut costs and maximize profits. And government doesn't want to because they are bribed by both the former groups.
Estrogen containing compounds are really darn cheap, easy examples of this is soy, which is added to an obscene amount of food yet contains very high estrogen compounds. A little bit here and there wont hurt you, such as using soy sauce for seasoning. But when you start consuming a lot of it, in the quantities that the modern diet is often consuming? Almost assuredly a different story.
