Patient's question:
The other day, my sister brought me some winter jujubes to eat. Actually, I used to really dislike eating winter jujubes, but my mother-in-law told me to eat only a small amount of them. She said that winter jujubes contain something that is cold in nature, especially for women like me who have poor uterine health. She advised me not to eat anything, but I was thinking, is it really a big deal just because I have uterine fibroids? So, I wanted to ask if women with uterine fibroids can eat winter jujubes?Doctor's answer:
With uterine fibroids, you can eat jujubes, and this will not affect the fibroids. It will not cause the fibroids to shrink. If the fibroids are less than five centimeters, conservative treatment is not necessary, and surgery is not required. You can take Guizhi Fuling capsules for treatment. This medication is a traditional Chinese medicine preparation that can cause fibroids to shrink and grow, and control the growth of fibroids. Do not overexert yourself and avoid spicy and irritating foods.
