Patient's question:
I am 45 years old. Three months ago, a thorough examination revealed a tendency to develop uterine fibroids. I am particularly concerned about the negative impact on my health. I would like to ask what to eat for uterine fibroids in daily life?Doctor's answer:
Uterine fibroids, also known as leiomyomas, are common benign tumors of the female reproductive system. Most are asymptomatic, though a few may present with symptoms such as vaginal bleeding, palpable abdominal masses, and symptom control. The exact cause of this condition is unclear. Modern Western medicine employs hormone therapy or surgical treatment, with no other ideal therapies currently available. Minimally invasive surgery is the most effective method for treating uterine fibroids. The surgeon makes three small incisions, each about 5 millimeters in size, in hidden areas of the patient's abdomen and inserts a laparoscope. Through a television monitor connected to the laparoscope, the surgeon can clearly and carefully observe the magnified interior of the abdomen. The instruments left outside the patient's body are then used to perform the treatment.
