Patient's question:
My vagina has irregular peeling, my menstrual period has shortened, and sometimes I have severe abdominal pain. The day before yesterday, I went to the hospital for a thorough examination, and the result was that I have uterine fibroids. I really love drinking soy milk in my daily life, but I heard from a friend that soy milk contains estrogen. Can I drink soy milk if I have uterine fibroids?Doctor's answer:
Women with uterine fibroids can drink soy milk. Uterine fibroids are a common gynecological tumor in women, and the specific recurrence reason is not very clear. It may be related to endocrine disorders in the body's hormone levels, and estrogen stimulation can also slow down the growth of fibroids. The hormones contained in soy milk are plant-based hormones, which are different from the hormones in the human body. They can regulate the excretion of hormones in the human body. Uterine fibroids are a gynecological disease that is prone to occur. During medication, women need to pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of care. It is recommended that patients pay more attention to vaginal hygiene and maintain a light diet as the foundation. Wishing female patients a speedy recovery!
