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'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Could you please tell me what dietary precautions are needed for ovarian cysts?Doctor's answer:
Women with ovarian cysts should pay attention to the following dietary points:1. Eat a light diet, ensuring it is rich in sufficient nutrients, and correct picky eating and abnormal eating habits. Avoid foods that may trigger exacerbation, such as mutton, shrimp, crabs, eel, salted fish, and black fish.
2. Avoid spicy foods and drinks, such as chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, raw scallions, raw garlic, and baijiu (strong alcohol).
3. Do not consume foods with heating properties, blood-clotting effects, or hormone components, such as longans, jujubes, collagen, and royal jelly.
4. Eat more lean meat, chicken, eggs, quail eggs, crucian carp, softshell turtle, white fish, cabbage, asparagus, celery, spinach, cucumbers, winter melons, mushrooms, tofu, kelp, and seaweed. Also include fruits.
5. Avoid high levels of stress and mental stimulation, and maintain a positive mood and adequate sleep.
