Can I drink coffee if I have uterine fibroids?

The probability of female friends suffering from gynecological diseases is getting higher and higher, especially uterine fibroids, which is the most common gynecological disease now and is also a relatively benign tumor. However, because it is benign, the initial symptoms of uterine fibroids are not so obvious, so it will not be discovered by people at the beginning, so it cannot be treated well. Therefore, many patients go for treatment in the late stage. Therefore, special attention should be paid to diet during the treatment process.

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 body's excitability and have a certain medicinal effect. If patients take coffee, it can aggravate the degree of endocrine disorders, thereby aggravating the condition of uterine fibroids and affecting the treatment effect. In addition, excessive intake of caffeine in coffee can lead to a decrease in estrogen secretion, which in turn causes a drop in estrogen levels in the body, causing adverse effects on hormonal activity in women and the ovulatory function of the ovaries, 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, the patient generally does not need special treatment, but only regular check-ups. However, one thing they should pay attention to in their daily diet is to eat less jujubes. The occurrence of uterine fibroids is related to the increase of 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 jujubes have good maintenance effects on women, they are not suitable for patients with uterine fibroids, especially those with heavy phlegm and dampness, and should be strictly prohibited from eating them.

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.

Patients with uterine fibroids should try not to drink coffee, because coffee itself has a certain stimulating effect. If women drink coffee, it is likely to cause endocrine disorders in their bodies, which will make their uterine fibroids worse. It will cause very bad effects and even reduce their chances of conceiving in the future.
