Uterine fibroids are not good for Astragalus .
Because Astragalus is a common Chinese medicinal material, it is usually used to soak in water and soup to treat anemia and insufficient Qi and blood. In addition, astragalus can be used to replenish qi in all cases of qi deficiency and depression of the middle qi, which can treat weak physical fitness, easy fatigue, and some symptoms of colds. However, Astragalus is a hot food. It also has a function of promoting blood circulation and promoting menstruation, which is suitable for amenorrhea and dysmenorrhea. The common symptom of uterine fibroids is excessive menstrual flow. If astragalus is used, it may cause more menstrual flow in patients with uterine fibroids, so astragalus should not be taken.
Suggestion: Ensure the supplement of microelements and various vitamins, proteins and other nutrients. Eat more soy products, soy products can regulate hormones in the body and help the body’s endocrine balance.
