Piles A further dilemma of constipation is that it may contribute to
the development of piles (haemorrhoids), which are varicose veins
that form in the rectum. Due to the weight of your growing baby
putting pressure on the veins in the pelvic region, combined with
constipation, the tendency to develop piles is greater during
pregnancy. Luckily, it is more common for expectant woman to suffer
from internal piles which are far less painful and evident than
external piles, which actually bulge out of the opening of the anus.
Internal piles present themselves in the form of slight bleeding
after a bowel movement. This may feel tender or quite painful, and
you may sense an uncomfortable 'fullness' in the rectum, even after
just using the toilet.
Fortunately, piles that manifest themselves during pregnancy,
usually subside shortly after the birth of your baby, if they
persist however, ask your doctor for advice and treatment.
