Patient's question:
Auntie had a gynecological examination and found a uterine fibroid. Her body is relatively weak, so she decided to boil and drink poria water. Can uterine fibroids drink poria?Doctor's answer:
Generally, it is still possible to consume Poria (Fuling) if you have uterine fibroids, but it's important to monitor your menstrual cycle and ensure it's normal. Avoid overworking and other strenuous activities. Poria should not be consumed during the period leading up to your menstrual cycle. On a regular basis, you can still incorporate Poria into your diet through food therapy, but pay attention to enhancing your nutrition. It's also recommended to have regular ultrasound check-ups, but always prioritize safety and avoid excessive stress.During treatment, patients should follow a balanced diet, maintain a regular sleep schedule, actively engage in physical exercise, and focus on regulating their physical and mental health. Keep personal hygiene in mind to avoid infections due to weakened immunity.
