Facts About Vulvar Varicosities
As with the causes of
vulvar varicosities, the symptoms also vary from woman to woman. Many
causes are responsible for vulvar varicose
veins including obesity and aging. But the chief amongst
these factors is pregnancy. It invites various unforeseen changes that affect
the health of veins around the pelvis region. The first such change is the rise
in blood flow to the pelvis region during pregnancy.
The increasing size of your belly and the related weight gain pressurize these veins during pregnancy. This stress can lead to vulvar varicosities. It is a condition in which the veins get swollen because of blood pooling and might become painful. Courtesy of the unawareness and shame around discussing such discomforts, not many women talk about it.
