Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I also feel extremely cold and afraid of the cold. Can uterine fibroids be treated with saffron?Doctor's answer:
Uterine fibroids are considered by traditional Chinese medicine to be caused by the mutual accumulation of phlegm and blood stasis obstructing the uterine cavity. Treatment options include Guizhi Fuling Pill or Xiaojin Pill, or surgical intervention, which is the most definitive approach. The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects women's health but can also lead to further gynecological conditions. Therefore, it is best to undergo a gynecological examination at a hospital to identify the underlying cause and receive targeted treatment. Additionally, dietary management should be noted, focusing on light and easily digestible foods, while avoiding spicy, irritating, and cold foods.
