What are the causes of hemorrhoids in pregnant women

summary

Pregnant women have a high incidence of hemorrhoids, a kind of intestinal disease. More than 80% of women have hemorrhoids during pregnancy. My cousin is also like this. She has been pregnant for more than five months. She can eat and drink at first, and her defecation is very smooth. But recently, her defecation has become worse. It's very difficult to defecate every time. After squatting for a long time, she can't get rid of it. Every time she stands up, she will feel dizzy. Went to the hospital to see, the doctor said she had hemorrhoids. Excuse me: why does a woman easily suffer from hemorrhoids during pregnancy?

What are the causes of hemorrhoids in pregnant women

First of all, hemorrhoids is a kind of intestinal disease, not a kind of sore. It is because of the dilatation and bending of the subrectal mucosa and the subdermal veins of the anus, or the blood circulation is not smooth due to excessive stimulation and compression. Therefore, it causes a kind of venous mass, which forms hemorrhoids for a long time.

Secondly, when a woman is pregnant, in order to supply nutrition to the fetus in the body, the pelvic artery blood flow must increase, and with the growth of the fetus, the pelvic cavity of the pregnant woman will be oppressed, so the blood flow of hemorrhoids will be hindered, resulting in difficult defecation.

In addition, when a woman is pregnant, progesterone will definitely increase. Under the influence of pregnancy hormone, the peristalsis of gastrointestinal tract will also decrease. As a result, the time of gastric emptying and intestinal transportation will be longer than usual. As a result, the peristalsis of intestinal tract will decrease. Feces will accumulate in the colon and slowly lose water, which will cause constipation. As soon as constipation lasts, hemorrhoids will form.

matters needing attention

Got hemorrhoids, pregnant women should also relax, don't worry, to actively participate in physical exercise, increase gastrointestinal peristalsis. Diet, to eat more cellulose containing green vegetables and fruits, drink more water.
