What should I pay attention to when my endometrium is thick?

Endometrial thickening, also known as endometrial hyperplasia, refers to a disease in which the endometrium grows excessively due to inflammation of the endometrium, endocrine disorders, or the stimulation of certain drugs. Endometrial thickening is more common in adolescent or menopausal women with irregular menstruation and is a reversible endocrine system disease.

Dietary considerations for endometrial thickening

Clinical studies have shown that the vast majority of patients can be cured through treatment as long as they maintain a sustained benign state. Experts say that treatment combined with dietary attention can help patients recover.

【Dietary taboos】

1) Avoid eating raw fruits before and after menstruation.

2) Cold foods, especially before and after menstruation, do not eat overheated soups, vegetables, or raw or cold foods.
