Can women with uterine fibroids eat Ejiao?

Patient's question:

Uterine fibroids, all four are about 1.3 in size, have been present for two years. Previous treatment history and effectiveness: currently undergoing annual check-ups. How can I be helped now: Can I eat Ejiao (Ding Dang Hong)? Currently have fibroids in my abdomen.

Doctor's answer:

If viewed from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) pharmacology, uterine fibroids can be treated with Ejiao (). However, it is generally used in combination with other herbs, meaning Ejiao is often used to formulate a prescription. If used alone, the effectiveness of treating fibroids may not be as good.
Recommendation: It is recommended that you consult a qualified TCM practitioner for a detailed diagnosis before taking medication. Many prescriptions for treating fibroids, such as Huangtu Decoction (), contain Ejiao. For severe cases of uterine fibroids, it is advised to seek immediate medical attention and follow the doctor's recommendations for treatment. Avoid using medication blindly, as this may worsen the condition.
