Patient's question:
I have uterine fibroids, and I have decided to undergo treatment now because I am concerned about the impact on my health. Could you please tell me what foods are helpful for the recovery of uterine fibroids?Doctor's answer:
Uterine fibroids are caused by long-term estrogen stimulation, and animal experiments indicate that high-fat foods promote the production and absorption of certain hormones. Therefore, women with a higher body fat percentage have a significantly lower incidence of uterine fibroids. Thus, maintaining healthy eating habits can have a certain preventive effect on uterine fibroids:1. Eat more whole grains such as corn, beans, etc.
2. Eat on time and in moderation to avoid overeating, stay on the path to health.
3. Keep meals light and avoid foods that may trigger inflammation, such as mutton, dog meat, shrimp, crabs, eel, salted fish, and black fish.
4. Consume plenty of nutrient-rich dry fruits such as peanuts, sesame seeds, and sunflower seeds.
