Patient's question:
Auntie had been experiencing mild lower abdominal pain and a feeling of heaviness in recent years. She went to the hospital for a thorough examination and was told she had uterine fibroids, approximately 4mm x 3mm in size. The doctor advised her to pay attention to her diet, but she couldn't resist her cravings and wanted to eat everything. I worry that her fibroids might grow larger due to her lack of dietary discipline.Doctor's answer:
1. Women with uterine fibroids should not eat grilled meat, fried food, or pickled food.2. For women with uterine fibroids, it is important to pay attention to foods that should be avoided, such as spicy, alcoholic, and frozen foods.
3. Women with uterine fibroids should avoid foods that are prone to trigger symptoms, such as mutton, shrimp, crabs, eel, salted fish, and black fish.
4. Women with uterine fibroids should not eat longan, jujubes, collagen, or royal jelly.
5. Women with uterine fibroids should avoid taking oral contraceptives.
