Patient's question:
I am a 63-year-old woman who doesn't usually have much to do, but after having sex with my boyfriend, I always feel uncomfortable in my private area. Not only is the color of my discharge abnormal, but the smell is also very unpleasant. This issue has been troubling me for a long time. Could you please tell me: what dietary precautions should I take after uterine fibroid surgery?Doctor's answer:
In your case, it is recommended to have sexual activity within one month after surgery. You should always keep the area clean, avoid taking baths, as it can easily infect the wound. Also, avoid strenuous exercise. Consume foods that are rich in nutrition and easy to absorb, such as lean meat, chicken, eggs, and quail eggs. Eat more vegetables like cabbage, asparagus, celery, spinach, and cucumbers. Reduce the intake of spicy and stimulating foods, including collagen, red dates, and longans, which contain estrogen.
