Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried it might affect fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Can I eat (Dokudami) with uterine fibroids?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. The occurrence of uterine fibroids not only affects women's health but also leads to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to undergo a gynecological examination at a hospital to identify the cause and receive symptomatic treatment. Additionally, pay attention to personal hygiene and maintain cleanliness in the perineal area.
