Can you eat before the Qing Palace surgery?

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. May I ask if I can eat before the Qing Palace surgery?

Doctor's answer:

The main reason for not eating in front of crowds is that surgical patients under anesthesia may experience vomiting and reflux symptoms, which could lead to serious consequences. The aspiration of food from the stomach can cause acute respiratory obstruction, bronchospasm, aspiration pneumonia, and other severe complications. Therefore, surgery should be performed on an empty stomach.
