Patient's question:
Earlier, I had a physical check-up with my mom, and she was found to have uterine fibroids. The hospital said my mom is an early-stage uterine fibroid patient. What should patients with uterine fibroids eat?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended that uterine fibroid patients consume more lean meat, chicken, eggs, asparagus, celery, spinach, and other nutritious foods, as well as whole grains like corn and beans. Avoid consuming Ejiao (donkey-hide glue), longans, red dates, and other high-heat or blood-clotting foods. Patients should also avoid spicy foods and drinks such as chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, raw scallions, raw garlic, and baijiu (Chinese liquor).In addition to symptomatic treatment for uterine fibroids, patients should pay attention to proper care, such as maintaining a balanced diet and keeping a positive mood. At the same time, patients should choose a reputable hospital for diagnosis to ensure effective treatment.
