Why wear compression socks while pregnant?
Pregnancy causes changes in your body and hormones that decrease blood circulation. This is why during pregnancy, women often experience swollen feet, tired aching legs, and varicose or spider veins.
-
During pregnancy, a woman's blood volume increases by 30 -50% which puts a strain on the circulatory system.
-
As the baby grows and your body expands, it puts pressure on the vein walls.
-
Pregnancy causes hormonal changes that increase blood coagulability, a measure of how easily blood clots. Studies have shown pregnant women have a six times higher risk of blood clots (DVT) than women who aren't pregnant.
-
Unsightly and painful Varicose Veins and Spider Veins show up during pregnancy due to poor blood circulation.Studies show around 50 - 70% of pregnant women will develop one type of varicose veins (inclduing minor spider veins).
By boosting circulation, Dr. Segal's Compression socks help prevent & relieve these common pregnancy symptoms.
