Pregnant women should be treated with more care than the average person. There are many medications for hemorrhoids, some of which are very effective in relieving symptoms, but they often contain ingredients such as musk, alum, mannitol and antibacterial agents, all of which have an effect on the fetus and should never be used by pregnant women to treat hemorrhoids. For example, musk can easily lead to miscarriage, alum can cause brain damage to the fetus, and antibacterial agents can cause discoloration of the fetus’ skin. Pregnant women should read the instructions in detail when using any medication during pregnancy and consult their doctor if necessary, and should never assume that only oral medications are contraindicated for pregnant women. Although hemorrhoids can be treated surgically, surgery is generally not advisable in the second trimester. The reason is that for pregnant women with hemorrhoids, surgical treatment in late pregnancy can cause miscarriage or premature birth; while the use of narcotics and certain antibiotics in early pregnancy can make the fetus at risk of teratogenicity, so pregnant women with hemorrhoids should be treated mainly by dietary regulation and daily fumigation baths, and generally do not use surgery. Even if the condition is very serious, you should wait until after the puerperium to undergo surgery, and if the hemorrhoid nucleus is prolapsed, it should be retracted as soon as possible, with more bed rest; if necessary, you can consider injection therapy, ligation therapy, cryotherapy, etc. after the doctor conducts a systematic examination and identifies the situation. At present, if the symptoms are aggravated after the treatment, if the nail cannot be retracted, and if there is obvious pain, surgery should be considered, but it is advisable to choose 20 to 32 weeks of pregnancy as much as possible. The surgical procedure should be paid attention to because of the fragile tissue and easy bleeding during pregnancy. After 36 weeks of pregnancy, surgery is not advisable because of bleeding, edema and fragile tissues in the anal perineum, and the wound is usually difficult to heal completely. Surgery after delivery is generally considered to be a local and systemic procedure, so it can be considered if needed. So can pregnant women use hemorrhoid creams? Generally speaking, hemorrhoid creams contain ingredients such as musk, which can lead to miscarriage or affect the healthy development of the fetus, so they are not recommended. How to treat hemorrhoids in pregnant women? Because pregnant women often have difficulty defecating or are constipated, the blood in the hemorrhoidal plexus in the lower rectum and anus can stagnate, which can trigger hemorrhoids or make them worse.
