Why Do Hemorrhoids Occur During Pregnancy?
Several pregnancy-related factors can increase the risk of piles:
- Increased pelvic pressure from the growing uterus affects blood flow and causes swelling.
- Hormonal changes (especially progesterone) relax vein walls, making them more prone to swelling.
- Constipation due to slower digestion leads to straining during bowel movements.
- Increased blood volume enlarges veins in the rectal area.
Safe Treatment and Prevention
During pregnancy, piles treatment mainly focuses on relieving symptoms naturally:
- Eat a fiber-rich diet (fruits, vegetables, and whole grains)
- Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water
- Use sitz baths for soothing relief
- Avoid prolonged sitting or standing
- Apply cold compresses to reduce pain and swelling
- Sleep on your left side to reduce pressure on pelvic veins
If symptoms persist, Dr. Anjana Dabhi may recommend gentle topical creams, witch hazel pads, or stool softeners that are safe during pregnancy.
