Desire to have children, pregnancy, postpartum period, and varicose veins

Young women often wonder what they need to be aware of with regard to their varicose veins during pregnancy and whether varicose veins might even be dangerous during this wonderful time.

The good news is: no—if certain behavioral measures are observed. Varicose veins can be removed preventively. Let's start with the desire to have children: this does not need to be influenced by a woman's existing varicose veins, as varicose veins do not usually pose a risk to pregnancy or the health of the baby.
