Patient's question:
I've been divorced for two years and have always wanted a child. Although both of us have been working hard, it hasn't been successful. Later, we went to the hospital for a thorough check-up, and it turned out to be my problem. I'm almost 30 and still don't have a child, especially because both sets of parents are very anxious. What should infertile people eat?Doctor's answer:
It is not advisable to consume spicy foods. Such as chili peppers, raw scallions, raw garlic, Sichuan peppercorns, black pepper, fennel, etc. Spicy foods can boost yang and transform fire, scald the yin essence, cause semen to fail to liquefy, leading to infertility or reduced fertility. It is absolutely forbidden to overconsume alcohol, strong tea, coffee, etc. Eat less foods that are overly warm and dry, as well as extremely cold and damaging to yang, such as various cold drinks, sesame seeds, river clam, sea pine nuts, water asparagus, lettuce, bitter gourd, etc. Infertility conditions are prone to recurring, requiring long-term medication to maintain.
