When I go to the clinic, I often come across young pregnant female patients with “hemorrhoids” who come to see the doctor with painful expressions and restlessness. The first thing they say is “Doctor, please help me first, I can’t take it anymore”. After examination, they are usually more serious thrombosed hemorrhoids or embedded hemorrhoids, which have little success with conservative treatment and require surgery. However, the patient’s “pregnant” status often makes treatment more difficult and causes greater medical expenses. On the other hand, we also find that as women become more concerned about their health, more and more patients who are preparing for pregnancy are coming to the clinic for consultation and seeking help from doctors to solve their “worries”. In fact, more than 80% of pregnant women suffer from perianal disease to a greater or lesser extent. This is because, after pregnancy, due to the secretion of hormones, hormone level fluctuations, easy to make the blood vessels near the anus dilate, relaxed tissue congestion and expansion; coupled with the expansion of the pregnant uterus compression of blood vessels, so that the lower body blood flow is not smooth, increasing the congestion of tissue near the anus, edema, pregnant women are easy to appear or aggravate the existing perianal disorders. This is also the reason why menstruating mothers are prone to hemorrhoids. If you have constipation, it’s like adding fuel to the fire, and you may even have a perianal abscess due to repeated inflammatory stimulation in the anal sinus. Hemorrhoids in pregnant women usually become more severe as the months of pregnancy increase, reaching a peak at the end of pregnancy or at the time of delivery. And if hemorrhoids flare up acutely during pregnancy, a pregnant woman can be in great pain, not eating or sleeping well, seriously affecting her mental state, and overstimulation of pain may even lead to miscarriage. Therefore, I suggest that women who are preparing to have a baby should visit an anorectal clinic a few months before they are ready to get pregnant to check for hemorrhoids and have them treated in time so that they have less chance of triggering them during pregnancy. Women with constipation can also take advantage of these months to take laxatives to regulate and develop a good bowel movement routine to prevent constipation from worsening during pregnancy. For those who are pregnant, if you have hemorrhoids yourself, do not be careless and pay attention to prevent attacks.
