Doctor's answer:

Hello, based on your condition, general drug treatment is recommended. Dietary precautions for patients with uterine fibroids:
1. Maintain a light diet and avoid foods that may trigger inflammation, such as mutton, shrimp, crab, eel, salted fish, and black fish.
2. Avoid spicy foods and beverages, such as chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, raw onions, raw garlic, and baijiu (Chinese liquor).
3. Refrain from consuming foods that are heat-inducing, promote blood clotting, or contain hormone components, such as longans, jujubes, donkey-hide gelatin, and royal jelly.
4. Increase intake of lean meat, chicken, eggs, quail eggs, crucian carp, softshell turtle, white fish, cabbage, asparagus, celery, spinach, cucumber, winter melon, mushrooms, tofu, kelp, nori, and fruits.
