What should I pay attention to in my diet after hysterectomy? Following hysterectomy, you should pay attention to the following dietary considerations:

1. Avoid greasy food. Eating too much greasy food will lead to fat accumulation, making wounds difficult to heal and weakening resistance to bacteria.

2. After surgery, patients should increase their protein intake. Foods such as fish, meat, beans, eggs, and milk are rich in protein, which can help wound healing and increase physical strength. In terms of meat, patients can choose more fish because fish is easier to digest and absorb, but remember to eat the meat and not just drink the soup.

3. In addition, you should also eat an appropriate amount of vegetables and fruits. Because vegetables and fruits are rich in vitamins and minerals, they can help patients heal their wounds and increase their body's resistance. At the same time, pay attention to drinking more water and avoid eating foods that easily cause bloating, such as onions, cabbage, sweet olives, soy products, etc.

4. Adhere to a low-fat diet and eat more lean meat, eggs, green vegetables, fruits, etc.

5. Eat more whole grains such as corn, beans, etc.

6. Eat nutritious dried fruits often, such as peanuts, sesame seeds, melon seeds, etc.

7. Drink more water. Drink 2000-3000cc of water every day to prevent constipation.

8. Do not eat foods that easily cause bloating: such as onions, cabbage, olives, soy products, etc.

9. Eat at regular times and in regular amounts, and do not overeat.

10. The most important thing about diet after hysterectomy is to avoid spicy food, alcohol, frozen food, etc. The diet should be light, and avoid eating irritating foods such as mutton, shrimp, crab, eel, salted fish, and black fish. Avoid spicy foods and drinks such as chili peppers, peppercorns, raw onions, raw garlic, and white wine. Avoid eating foods that are hot, coagulant, or contain hormones, such as longan, red dates, donkey-hide gelatin, and royal jelly.

11. If you have anemia, eat more foods high in iron, such as pork liver, black sesame, grapes, seaweed, wolfberry, shiitake mushrooms, etc.

In short, pay attention to nutrition after hysterectomy, and the diet should be mainly high-protein, low-fat.
