Patient's question:
Last time, our unit organized a health check-up including gynecological examinations. A colleague of mine knew I had gynecological issues. This morning while I was drinking soy milk, she told me, "How dare you still drink this? You can't drink soy milk if you have gynecological problems." I'd like to ask if it's okay to drink soy milk when you have gynecological issues?Doctor's answer:
Hello, actually not all gynecological diseases cannot be combined with soy milk. It depends on the type of gynecological disease. If it is caused by internal damp-heat, such as excessive leukorrhea or a bad odor, it is best not to consume soy milk.Suggestions: Because soy milk can easily lead to excessive growth of internal damp-heat, which may worsen the disease. Therefore, it is recommended that you drink plain water and pay attention to your diet. Avoid excessive greasy food and focus on a light diet.
