dose any one know the cause of it? some sites said its from the excessive weight gain but i gained about 23 pound...till yet i was 135 do u think its related ?do u think it will disappear after delivery? plz help i have alot I went to the doctor at 21 weeks (2 weeks ago) and she said that I had a start of a varicose vein in my vulva also. She said that the reason is the same as why we can get them on our legs. She said that the everything could just be pressing on certain veins that puts extra pressure on other veins.
She also said that most of time it goes away after giving birth. Unfortunately she said that it can become very painful. She said she felt bad for me because I was only 21 weeks and have a little while to go still. It sometimes hurt and sometimes it doesn't. I only gained 13 lbs. so far. And the crappy thing about it was that she didn't tell me of anything that can help it.
Good luck... hope it doesn't bother you too much. Finally someone other than myself who expeirenced this. Mine was so bad that the veins were very noticable and i would refer to it as my blue vagina. it's from the weight and pressure of everything, not the weight that you gained. it does become painful to the point where you can't keep your legs closed together which was hard for me when i had to sleep. best of luck. |
