What a pool varicose veins

In women, the pelvic varicose vein (VVMT) is a chronic disease of the vascular system. The main problem is that women of any age are prone to it, but the disease is quite difficult to identify at an early stage. Late diagnosis and late treatment can lead to serious complications in the form of infertility, a number of gynecological pathologies, and early termination of pregnancy.

In order to maximize the protection of your health from serious consequences, you need to know in detail what it is - pelvic varicose veins, how they manifest and what treatments are available.

Causes

Pregnancy is the cause of pelvic varicose veins

IMGT - what is it? This is a complex medical problem that affects the fragile female body in most cases. There are several reasons for hip varicose veins:

  1. Pregnancyis ​​the main cause of pelvic vascular pathologies. During pregnancy, the strongest hormonal changes occur in a woman’s body, with the uterus exerting the greatest possible pressure on the vascular system of the small pelvis. The end result is significant damage to blood flow. Women who have had difficult births are also at risk.
  2. Inheritance.VVMT, fragile and thin venous walls, defects in venous valves, all transmitted through genes.
  3. Inflammatory processes.Various diseases of the female reproductive system that are inflammatory in nature - the direct pathway of the varicose veins.
  4. Overactive female hormones.Abnormal production of female hormones can provoke VRV.
  5. Sexual intercourse. Many couples actively use unreliable methods of contraception such as interrupted intercourse. In addition to the dubious method of protection, a woman may suffer from VVMT due to interrupted intercourse. Oddly enough, pathology of the pelvic veins can occur in the absence of orgasm in a woman during intercourse.
  6. Activity minimum. Sedentary work, minimal amount of walking, sedentary lifestyle - all the causes of varicose veins and not only the pelvis but also the lower limbs.
  7. High physical exertion.For women, an overly active lifestyle, weight lifting, and regular carrying of heavy objects can lead to varicose veins.
  8. Clogged veins.Obstruction of the veins of the ovaries, uterus, and fallopian tubes, venous congestion (phlebostasis), and obstruction leads to varicose veins.

According to statistics, VVMT is often diagnosed in girls aged 16–17 years (approximately 20% of all cases of pathology). However, the disease is more ruthless for older women - after 45 years, 80% of women have to fight varicose veins in the pelvic organs.

Symptoms

The symptoms of pelvic varicose veins are very varied. The difficulty in diagnosing early in the disease is that most of these symptoms in women can be attributed to a formal, temporary defect in the body.

Menstrual cycle failure - a symptom of VVMT

Because a woman does not attach much importance to the diseases that arise, the woman later has to deal with an already advanced stage of the pathology, which is supported by a number of complications.

The main symptoms are:

  • regular menstrual disorders;
  • Severe lower abdominal pain (worsening during moments of sexual intercourse, weight lifting, prolonged or sitting, hypothermia, and nervous strain)
  • urinary disorder;
  • specific secretions from the genital tract;
  • increased negative emotional background during the premenstrual period;
  • The appearance of varicose veins and cobwebs characteristic of varicose veins in the thighs, buttocks, and perineum.

The disease can present with 2-3 symptoms. Some women noted the appearance of an absolutely complete list of the above symptoms.

Diagnostics

Varicose veins - ecstasy of the pelvic veins, which leads to a violation of the outflow of blood from the external and internal genitals. Careful testing is needed to diagnose the disease.

In modern medicine, the followingmethods are used to examine the vascular system of pelvic organs:

  • ultrasound examination (ultrasound);
  • dopplerography;
  • phlebography;
  • laparoscopy.

laparoscopyis ​​extremely rarely used in cases where there is a risk of severe concomitant pathologies. They are performed using an endoscope.Requires a puncture in the peritoneal region.

ultrasoundis ​​a common form of diagnosis that is widely practiced in many fields of medicine. It allows the doctor to see a comprehensive picture of the condition of the pelvic organs. This type of examination causes minimal discomfort to the patient and does not require surgery.

Doppler ultrasound examination of pelvic veinsvascular ultrasound, which allows early detection of venous valve dysfunction. During the examination, the doctor has the opportunity to visually visualize the condition of the veins in the pelvic organs, displayed on a special screen.

Basin PhlebographyX-ray. Prior to the start of the study, the patient is given a contrast agent that allows maximum examination of the condition of the veins, blood clots, blood clots, and the stagnant processes in them.

Methods to treat varicose veins

Treatment of pelvic varicose veins depends on the stage of the disease:

  1. In the initial stage, the veins dilate by up to 5 millimeters. The most dilated veins are in the upper region of the left ovary.
  2. In the second stage, the veins dilate by up to 10 millimeters. The pathology extends to both the left and right ovaries as well as the veins of the uterus.
  3. In the third stagethe veins are maximally dilated, more than 10 millimeters. Varicose veins are often associated with oncological neoplasms (benign or malignant tumors).

Doctors say it is impossible to get rid of varicose veins completely. However, this is not a reason to give up and allow the disease to progress. Quality, timely treatment helps to slow the destruction of veins, restore blood flow, eliminatesymptoms and significantly improve a woman’s quality of life.

Section I

First, wear special medical underwear. Use medications in the form of gels, ointments, and creams, and medications in the form of capsules and tablets (which help to normalize blood flow and strengthen blood vessel walls).

You need to start eating right - no more fiber, vitamins, fruits and vegetables, minimum fatty, salty, spicy, fried and smoked food.

II. section

Active medication support, dietary nutrition, physiotherapy exercises, therapeutic bedding, the healthiest lifestyle - this is the formula for treatment. You can combine recipes from traditional medicine to enhance the therapeutic effect.

In the early stages, it is extremely important to take strong medications thatincrease the tone of your veins and blood vesselsand resist the formation of blood clots.

You should have regular check-ups and consultations with your doctor. In case of deteriorating health, the doctor may decide on a more radical treatment method.

In some cases, your doctor may prescribe embolization. With the introduction of a special preparation (containing a sclerosing agent), blood flow and the structure of veins and blood vessels are restored.

III. section

When diagnosing the third stage of the disease, especially if the varicose veins are accompanied by an oncological neoplasm in the form of a tumor, conservative treatment will be absolutely ineffective.

The only way to cope with the disease is surgery. A vein damaged by a varicose vein is excised and ligated.

Unfortunately, even a cardinal method like surgery is not an absolute guarantee of complete elimination of the disease. In most cases, relapse is inevitable.

Preventive measures

Warm-up exercises to prevent varicose veins

As you know, disease is easier to prevent than to cure. There are several simple prevention methods that can help protect your body from this disease:

  1. Normalize the mode. Staying in a static position for a long time negatively affects the vascular system. If, due to the nature of the profession, you have to sit at the computer all day or vice versa - active work is required on your feet, it is important to take breaks. During a break, do simple warm-up exercises for a few minutes. This not only allows the muscles to relax and stretch, but also restores blood flow. Lifting heavy objects should also be kept to a minimum.
  2. Stable intestinal function.Good stomach function, lack of constipation and regular healthy stools minimize the presence of excess waste in the body. This requires a high quality diet, a high amount of fiber, a lack of alcohol and junk food.
  3. Contrast shower.This method not only strengthens the immune system but also improves the functioning of the circulatory system. To prevent varicose veins in the pelvis, do not forget to direct the flow of water to the perineal area.

Periodic medication. The use of creams and ointments, as well as the passage of preventive treatment, significantly increases the chances of protecting the body against varicose veins. You should undergo 4 medications a year to strengthen the walls of your veins and blood vessels, normalize blood flow and protect your circulatory system from blood clots.

Consult your doctor before taking prophylactic treatment and taking any medicine.

So pelvic varicose veins are an insidious disease that can have serious consequences and are very difficult to treat.

To prevent serious health problems, you should take careful care of your body and seek immediate help from a phlebologist if there are any signs of a varicose vein.
