Patient's question:
I have grown a lot of edamame at home. I want to cook and eat it. Can women with uterine fibroids eat edamame? Is it good for the body to eat too much edamame?Doctor's answer:
Women with uterine fibroids should try to avoid eating a lot of soy products. Of course, occasionally eating a small amount is not too harmful. Soy products like soybeans should be avoided as much as possible, because they contain a certain amount of estrogen, which can potentially reduce the size of uterine fibroids if consumed.Women with uterine fibroids should eat more vegetables and less meat, and avoid excessive intake of health supplements and soy products. Regulate physical and mental health, maintain personal hygiene, and avoid bacterial invasion due to weakened immunity.
