Hello, dear moms. During my third pregnancy, I noticed a vein appearing in my groin area. The doctor diagnosed it as varicose veins, and they are growing and expanding. I was told that the longer the pregnancy, the more the veins will grow. Starting from week 28, I was advised to inject Clexane and wear compression stockings. It's really tough, especially in +30°C summer weather ((((. Now, I’m feeling anxious about childbirth. If anyone has experienced this, please share your story. What did you do? How did your labor go?

If varicose veins are present in the groin and are growing, it's important to follow your doctor's recommendations: take Lovenox injections, wear compression stockings, and avoid standing for long periods. Childbirth with varicose veins usually proceeds without complications when properly managed. During natural delivery, try to avoid straining too much and consult your obstetrician on proper techniques. A cesarean section may be recommended if there's a risk of thromboembolism or other complications, which your doctor will determine. Don't panic—prepare for labor according to your healthcare provider's guidance.

You should consider consulting a vascular specialist. Going into labor and giving birth are not indications for a cesarean section.

Lyubov She went to the doctor, who prescribed Lovenox (enoxaparin) and compression stockings. The doctor reassured her that it's not dangerous because it's an external vein and it doesn't block the blood flow to the heart. The doctor who delivered her said that a cesarean section is only necessary in an emergency; otherwise, she can give birth naturally.

Olga The doctor who delivered my second child mentioned that a cesarean section would be performed only in an emergency situation.

I also developed varicose veins. I was prescribed compression stockings, but since it's summer and very hot, I wear them under dresses and long skirts. Everything feels normal and comfortable, and there's no itching. Of course, much depends on the material of the stockings.
