What should I pay attention to when exercising with uterine fibroids?

Patients with uterine fibroids can exercise appropriately, but they should pay attention to the combination of work and rest. Moderate physical exercise can enhance one's own resistance, which is of great help to the recovery of uterine fibroids.

Uterine fibroids are closely related to daily life, so special attention should be paid to the details of daily life after the occurrence of uterine fibroids. When the condition is mild, you can do appropriate exercise, such as jogging, Tai Chi and other aerobic exercises. However, if the tumor is large, be sure to avoid strenuous exercise, as this will worsen the condition, and seek professional medical treatment as soon as possible.

Walking and running exercises recommended by traditional Chinese medicine can have certain health benefits. When walking, your heel should touch the ground first, and you should take one step at a time. Combine your breathing with your walking speed, and don't walk too fast. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that landing the heels first can mobilize the kidney meridian and thus has the effect of strengthening the kidneys. When running, your breathing should be coordinated with the speed of running and should not be too fast.

In addition, patients with uterine fibroids should pay attention to the following in their daily lives:

1. Avoid excessive fatigue, especially during menstruation, and get enough rest. You can do appropriate exercise within the range of your body's tolerance.

2. Pay attention to a light diet, eat more fruits and vegetables, and less spicy food.

3. After being diagnosed with uterine fibroids, you should go to the hospital for a check-up once a month. If the fibroids grow slowly or do not grow at all, you may need to have a follow-up check every six months. If the enlargement is significant, surgical treatment should be considered to avoid severe bleeding or compression of abdominal organs.

4. If the patient experiences excessive bleeding, be alert to the occurrence of anemia symptoms and eat more iron-rich foods, such as animal liver.

5. Do not take extra estrogen, especially after menopause, to prevent the growth of uterine fibroids, for example, drink less soy milk.

The above is an introduction to what you need to pay attention to when exercising with uterine fibroids. After understanding it, we know that people with uterine fibroids should try not to do strenuous exercise in their daily lives. They can choose to walk slowly or stroll and other exercise methods. In addition, friends must pay attention to maintaining good personal hygiene in their daily lives.
