A total of 197 subjects were randomized into placebo and isoflavone, respectively. Two placebo and one isoflavone subjects had breast images but no DXA tests, resulting 194 subjects in analysis.

Except for race/ethnicity and study visits, all descriptive analyses on numerical variables were averages of 4 baseline visits. Study visit was average number of all baseline and follow-up visits. For numerical variables, the corresponding means and standard deviations (SDs) were stratified by groups. For categorical variable, percentages were presented.

All P > .05 for two group comparisons.
