What to eat after uterine fibroid surgery?

Patient's question:

My friend has already been experiencing abdominal pain and abnormal vaginal discharge for a while, and sometimes her vagina would even peel. A few days ago, she went to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor said she had uterine fibroids and needed surgery. She just finished the surgery yesterday afternoon, and she looks very weak. The family is very worried.

Doctor's answer:

After uterine fibroid surgery, it is recommended to consume nutrient-rich and easily digestible foods. Examples include milk, chicken, eggs, lean pork, fish, and tofu. The diet should be light and avoid foods that may exacerbate the condition, such as mutton, shrimp, crabs, eel, salted fish, and black fish. Avoid spicy foods and drinks like chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, raw onions, raw garlic, and baijiu. Also, avoid foods with heating properties, blood-clotting effects, or hormone content, such as longan, jujubes, donkey-hide glue, and royal jelly. In addition to treating uterine fibroids, patients are advised to pay attention to their diet and maintain a positive mood in daily life to enhance their physical condition and slow down the recovery process.
