Is cornflour good for people with fibroids?

Cornflour, also known as cornstarch, is generally considered safe for people with fibroids. It is a starch extracted from corn and is commonly used as a thickening agent in cooking and baking. There is no scientific evidence suggesting that cornflour has any specific impact on fibroids or their symptoms.

Fibroids, also known as uterine fibroids or leiomyomas, are non-cancerous growths in the uterus. The symptoms of fibroids vary depending on their size, location, and number. Common symptoms include heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, frequent urination, and a feeling of fullness or pressure in the abdomen.

If you have fibroids and are experiencing symptoms, it is important to talk to your doctor for proper diagnosis and management. Treatment options for fibroids may include medications, minimally invasive procedures such as uterine artery embolization (UAE) or focused ultrasound surgery (FUS), or surgical removal (myomectomy or hysterectomy).

It is always a good idea to follow a balanced diet and maintain a healthy lifestyle to support overall well-being, regardless of specific health conditions. This may include eating a nutritious diet, exercising regularly, maintaining a healthy weight, and managing stress. If you have any concerns or questions about your specific situation, it is best to consult with your healthcare provider for personalized advice.
