Dr. Yan Ying
Patients with adenomyosis should follow a light, bland diet and avoid foods or medications containing excessive estrogen. Fresh vegetables and fruits are recommended. Avoid overly greasy or spicy, irritating foods. Also, refrain from consuming excessively cold items—do not eat food taken directly from the refrigerator, as raw or cold foods may irritate the gastrointestinal tract, impair blood circulation, and exacerbate dysmenorrhea.
