Prevent Pregnancy Varicose Veins
With Our Top Tips

What can YOU do to Prevent Pregnancy Varicose Veins?

Simply the best way to prevent pregnancy varicose veins is to invest in some specially designed maternity support hose.

Maternity support hose may look like hideously unflattering industrial underwear, but these special prescription-strength maternity support hose (also known as graduated-compression stockings) will help you no end with the discomfort of pregnancy varicose veins.

They are expensive ... compared to standard maternity hose ... but they are worth every last penny and you could be wearing them for months!

As they are a medically approved product, you may find that you can claim for them from your health insurance ... it's worth checking whether you can!

Twice as thick as normal hose or tights, maternity support hose are tight at the ankle, getting looser as they go up your leg. They make it easier for blood to flow back up toward your heart and they help prevent swelling.

Provided you wear them every day, they may help you to prevent pregnancy varicose veins, or at leat to stop them from getting worse ... but you must wear them all day ... even on your wedding day!

Maternity support hose are not designed to be worn to bed, but you need to put them on before you get out of bed in the morning, while you're still lying down; this stops blood from pooling in your legs.

My Tip : Keep them next to your bed, so you have them to hand first thing in the morning!

It's important to ask your doctor about the appropriate compression level for you.

Once you understand what compression level is recommended for your condition, you can buy these products safely online here. All you need to do is follow the online guide to taking your ankle, calf and thigh measurements. This will ensure that you get a perfect fit.

If you feel any discomfort or pain when trying to prevent your pregnancy varicose veins developing, seek medical advice without delay.

And don't forget ... if you're prone to varicose and spider veins, pregnancy will definitely make them worse!
