During pregnancy, a woman's body undergoes major changes, including an increase in blood volume and fluid. This fluid can cause swelling, often in the legs, ankles and feet. Hormonal changes and weight gain are two factors that contribute to the development of varicose veins during pregnancy. To take care of the future mother's veins' health, it is recommended to wear compression stockings.
Before buying compression stockings, you should definitely consult a doctor.

The good news is that varicose veins often disappear soon after childbirth.
