Patients with uterine fibroids should avoid consuming red dates and coffee

There are two foods that patients with uterine fibroids should avoid in their daily lives, namely red dates and coffee.

1. Coffee

One of the main causes of uterine fibroids is endocrine disorders, and excessive coffee intake can increase the excitability of the body and have a certain drug effect. If patients take coffee, the degree of endocrine disorders in the body will be aggravated, which will in turn aggravate the condition of uterine fibroids and affect the treatment effect. In addition, if a large amount of caffeine in coffee is consumed excessively, it can lead to a decrease in estrogen secretion, which in turn causes a decrease in estrogen levels in the body, causing adverse effects on female hormone activity and ovarian ovulation function, greatly reducing the patient's chance of pregnancy in the future.

2. Jujube

Uterine fibroids are a benign tumor of the female reproductive system. If the fibroids are small and have no tendency to become malignant, patients generally do not need special treatment, but only regular checkups. However, they should pay attention to a daily dietary precaution, that is, eat less jujube. The occurrence of uterine fibroids is related to the increase in estrogen levels in the body, and jujube is a hot and coagulant food, which will promote the growth of uterine fibroids to a certain extent. Although jujube has a good maintenance effect on women, it is not suitable for patients with uterine fibroids, especially those with heavy phlegm and dampness, and should be strictly prohibited from eating.

TIPS: Patients who receive conservative treatment for uterine fibroids should go to the hospital for regular check-ups to see if the fibroids have increased in size and if they have become malignant. If necessary, surgical treatment should be considered in a timely manner.
