What sources DVT in pregnant women?

While the condition (DVT) could happen to anyone, its occurrence is more usual in pregnant women and those who have just given birth.


It is believed that the differences that go on in the body of a pregnant woman make blood clots more common, which happens as a consequence to keep excessive amounts of blood from shedding during childbirth.


The uterus also grows bigger during pregnancy, which can put much stress on vessels due to which blood flows from the lower body to the heart.


Few of the most common signs of DVT include:


  • Swelling and aching in the affected area
  • Tenderness or pain in the leg
  • Unidentified patches of redness building-up at the back of the leg

Due to swelling and discomfort being common pregnancy conditions, experiencing these might not always be signs of something severe, however, if you lie among the women who are at risk, or are concerned about any symptom – you must see a medical professional soon.

There are numerous methods for preventing DVT from building up, such as staying as much physically active as possible and wearing a special kind of compression stocking in order to let blood keep circulating in your legs.
