How long does it take to get pregnant after uterine fibroid surgery?

Uterine fibroid surgery is a surgical method for patients with uterine fibroids and is also one of the most effective medical methods for treating uterine fibroids. The incidence of uterine fibroids is not low. For many women who want to have children, they want to know how long it will take them to get pregnant after undergoing uterine fibroid surgery. In fact, this depends on the specific situation. Next, I will introduce you to the relevant knowledge about uterine fibroid surgery!

1. How long does it take to conceive after uterine fibroid surgery?

Uterine fibroids are a common disease among women, with a high incidence of about 25%. Therefore, a 3-cm uterine fibroid in this patient should not affect pregnancy. However, it also depends on the location of the fibroid growth:

(1) If the fibroids are only located within the muscle wall, this will have little impact on pregnancy.

(2) If the fibroids grow at the opening of the fallopian tube, it may affect pregnancy, and if this is the case, it will manifest as an increase in menstrual flow.

2. Precautions after uterine fibroid surgery

1. Within 6 hours after the uterine fibroid surgery, lie flat on the bed, but do not sleep on a pillow, and tilt your head to one side to avoid vomitus from being sucked into the trachea;

2. Most patients do not feel pain after uterine fibroid surgery, but you should also focus on massaging the patient's waist and legs, and help the patient turn over every 30 minutes to ensure blood circulation and prevent bedsores.

3. If the ureter can be removed after the infusion is completed on the same day, the patient can get out of bed and move around.

4. Six hours after minimally invasive surgery for uterine fibroids, the patient can eat a small amount of liquid food, such as porridge, noodle soup, etc. But do not give the patient sweetened milk or sugary drinks such as soy milk powder.

3. What can’t you eat after uterine fibroid surgery?

NO.1 Stimulating food

Including spicy food, alcohol, etc. Because spicy food can stimulate the endocrine system, causing endocrine disharmony and the risk of accelerating the growth of uterine fibroids; alcoholic foods can also stimulate the uterus, and drinking alcohol can cause blood to surge, which is not conducive to the emotional control of patients with uterine fibroids.

NO.2 Foods that are prone to inflammation

Such as lamb, shrimp, crab, eel, salted fish, black fish, etc. Because meat has a higher fat content for patients with uterine fibroids, obese women have a much higher risk of developing uterine fibroids than other women.

Secondly, patients with uterine fibroids should avoid eating seafood, as the hormones contained in these seafood are relatively strong and may cause uterine fibroids to develop more seriously.

NO.3 Foods that replenish blood and qi

Patients with uterine fibroids should be careful not to eat foods that replenish blood and qi, such as red dates, longan, donkey-hide gelatin, royal jelly and other blood-replenishing and nourishing foods, because the occurrence and growth of uterine fibroids are closely related to estrogen in the female body. If the estrogen secretion in the body is too high, it will promote the growth of uterine fibroids.
