Dietary considerations for adenomyosis

  In fact, there is nothing to be particularly contraindicated in the diet of adenomyosis patients. Generally, considering that cold and spicy foods can stimulate the body and strengthen the contraction frequency of the uterus, adenomyosis patients should try to eat less cold and spicy foods. Especially during menstruation, ice cream, chili and other foods should be avoided.  What about the “spicy girls” in Sichuan and Hunan?  It is said: “Jiangxi is not afraid of spicy, Sichuan spicy not afraid, Hunan is not afraid of spicy.” Our country is vast, one side of the soil to raise a side of people, some areas of the people really born to love spicy food, life is not less spicy food. For these areas of adenomyosis patients, I can not say a little spicy also do not let people touch, after all, regional habits are also closely related to the geographical environment. So my advice is that people can eat some spicy food in moderation during non-menstrual periods, but it’s best to hold back and not eat during menstruation.  I heard that soy milk, tofu and other soy foods contain estrogen, so adenomyosis patients can’t eat them?  Soybeans are rich in isoflavones, which are a kind of phytoestrogen. Theoretically, too much estrogen in a woman’s body will have a stimulating effect on the ovaries and uterus, etc. Adenomyosis patients already have high estrogen levels, so if estrogen levels are further increased, it will definitely be detrimental to the condition of adenomyosis. But this does not mean that we cannot consume soy foods. We can still eat them in moderation. For example, many of us love to drink soy milk.  Will drinking soy milk aggravate the condition of adenomyosis?  Theoretically speaking by drinking soy milk and achieve the condition of stimulating the development of the disease, is required to a certain amount of intake, and this intake, about 10 pounds of soy milk a day, for a month! This situation can be said to be non-existent in real life.  There are also dates, occasionally eat one or two is nothing, will not be a big problem, do not greedy mouth on the line, we have to relax the heart.  In addition, seafood is very popular because it is nutritious and tasty. This is a very good way to get the most out of your life. I often have post-operative adenomyosis patients send me a message saying, “I’ve been in surgery for a month, today’s class reunion, a table of seafood, can I eat it?” If I say “No, you can’t eat it, you can’t touch it at all!”, I’m afraid our patients will be very hurt. I’m afraid our patients will be heartbroken. In fact, in terms of diet and nutrition, our diet is diversified and balanced, so as to ensure that all aspects of the body’s nutritional elements can be supplemented. So adenomyosis patients are not unable to eat seafood food, but when eating should also pay attention to the principle of moderation, a few shrimp at the table is not a problem, moving chopsticks to taste the freshness of the problem, but can not be like friends around the same liberal amount to eat.  In short, in addition to the cold, spicy diet need to pay more attention to our adenomyosis patients, other aspects of the great need not be too restrictive, if the whole day this can not eat, that can not touch, the requirements of the monastery than the puritanical precepts are also strict, that life is too painful meaningless.  As for smoking and alcohol, in fact, we all know that many diseases doctors will basically advise: avoid smoking and alcohol!  Cigarettes need not be said, “smoking is harmful to health” slogan, I’m afraid that has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of people, whether we have no disease, it is not recommended that we smoke. The actual fact is that it is not common for women to smoke in our country, and most of them are still men, so this advice is for families with adenomyosis.  The most important thing to note is that the adenomyosis patients need to pay attention to the white wine, especially the high degree, strong white wine, try not to contact, especially during menstruation. In fact, many women will not be as alcoholic as men, especially white wine, but I contacted a lot of adenomyosis patients like to drink red wine, and some even like to drink two sips at night before going to bed, for many years have become a habit. The stimulation of red wine is not as powerful as highly white wine, we can usually drink in moderation, but it is advisable to avoid the menstrual period.
