Can women with uterine fibroids eat honey?

Patient's question:

The neighbor's aunt has uterine fibroids. I want to give them something. Can people with uterine fibroids eat honey?

Doctor's answer:

Honey still contains a very small amount of estrogen, and uterine fibroids may grow under the stimulating effect of estrogen. Therefore, it is best for those with uterine fibroids to avoid eating honey for a long time, as it may trigger the shrinkage of uterine fibroids. For uterine fibroids, in general, when the fibroids are relatively small, it is possible to have irregular follow-up checks. Usually, a follow-up check is performed once a year. Generally, they will expand after menopause. In addition to treatment, it is important to maintain a light diet and a good mood. Only with a positive mindset and adequate sleep can you help yourself recover quickly from the illness.
