  1. Varicose Veins In Pregnancy Varicose veins, also known as varicosities, are swollen and enlarged veins near the skin surface, often caused by improper blood circulation. They commonly appear in the legs but can occur almost anywhere, including the buttocks, rectum, and vaginal area. Varicose veins in pregnancy are quite common, though they are painless and harmless. During pregnancy, the uterus tends to block the veins that return blood from the lower half of your body to the heart, reducing blood flow from the legs. The surge of hormones during pregnancy softens the veins, making it harder for them to work properly. Varicose veins in pregnancy have also been linked to genetic factors.
