Patient's question:
I have uterine fibroids. I just got pregnant, and the fibroids are growing rapidly. I read online that drinking soy milk is good for the baby, but the fibroids are also growing quickly. The doctor suggested whether I should still drink it. I am 12 days post-IVF transfer and have already clearly tested positive with two lines.Doctor's answer:
Hello! Drinking soy milk can accelerate the growth of uterine fibroids, but this is just a folk belief. Currently, there is no complete medical evidence to support this claim, and it is not scientifically sound. Therefore, the situation you mentioned does not actually exist, at least it cannot be confirmed.I suggest you rest properly and maintain a normal diet. Additionally, it is important to have regular follow-up check-ups. Currently, blood tests are a good way to monitor the situation. Around the 50th day of pregnancy, an ultrasound can be performed to check the fetal heartbeat.
