Varicose veins during pregnancy in the groin - a fairly common phenomenon, which affects about 30% of women. In this case, during the second and subsequent pregnancy, the likelihood of varicose veins and genitalia increases significantly.
The causes of small pelvis varicose
A strong manifestation of veins on the labia and the occurrence of vaginal varicose during pregnancy is associated with an increase in the uterus. Expansion of the uterine veins during pregnancy squeezes the vessels of the small pelvis, making it difficult to drain blood. As a result, there is swelling of the veins, which during pregnancy appear on the pubic, labia and vagina. The veins in the groin with varicose during pregnancy are nodes of a dark blue color, which, as a rule, cause some discomfort to the woman.
The cause of varicose veins or labia during pregnancy is often a genetic predisposition. In other words, if your mother or grandmother suffered from varicose veins, or you yourself had previously been diagnosed with this, it is worth taking preventive measures to prevent the appearance of the disease.
Prevention and treatment of varicose veins during pregnancy
The treatment of the disease is handled by a phlebologist, to whom it is worth appealing with the slightest suspicion of varicose veins. To cause the appearance of pronounced veins on the labia during pregnancy can be overweight, improper diet, bad habits and lack of exercise. Accordingly, increased attention to one's own health, adjustments to the food system and walking outdoors will help you avoid such an unpleasant phenomenon.
If this diagnosis is already delivered to you, then the doctor can prescribe the use of a special bandage for pregnant women , which is necessary only during sleep. In addition, you should follow all the recommendations that are relevant for varicose veins on the legs.
Since varicose can not only cause thrombophlebitis in a woman, but also cause placental insufficiency of the fetus, during pregnancy, physicians practice compression therapy, as well as injecting drugs directly into the vein.
It should be noted that vaginal varicose during pregnancy is not an absolute indication for caesarean section, therefore the method of delivery should be chosen by the attending physician, taking into account the degree of veins, the general condition of the mother and child.
