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 my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Can uterine fibroids be treated with Jin Shui Bao?Doctor's answer:
Uterine fibroids are considered in Traditional Chinese Medicine as the result 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 approach. For your condition, you can start with oral antibiotics, vitamins, hormones, and Chinese herbal medicine. Avoid spicy, alcoholic, and other irritating foods. If the effect is not satisfactory, minimally invasive surgery can be performed at the hospital. Pay attention to local hygiene to prevent cross-infection.
