Patient's question:
I am 50 years old this year. The doctor said that if I go through menopause at this age, fibroids will expand. What do you like to eat that can completely stop menopause?Doctor's answer:
First, consider whether the size of the fibroid is the cause. If the fibroid is not large, surgery may not be necessary, and it will naturally shrink over time after menopause. However, if the fibroid is very large and menstrual bleeding continues to increase, even leading to anemia, surgery is required. Stopping menstruation through medication is also unreliable, as it can cause abnormal lipid metabolism, increased systemic immune function, endocrine disorders, osteoporosis, and sexual dysfunction, among other issues.It is recommended to first have an ultrasound to check the size of the fibroid and determine if it meets surgical criteria. If it does not meet the criteria for surgery, medication-induced menstruation can be considered under the guidance of a doctor. Menstrual headaches are a symptom of premenstrual tension syndrome. To prevent excessive water intake and maintain a light diet before menstruation, diuretics can be used if necessary to reduce pain.
