Spider Veins Hormonal

Prevention of Spider Veins

Spider veins hormonal...

Spider veins, which are the superficial versions of varicose veins, have many possible causes. Some of these are hereditary, obesity, pregnancy, fragile capillaries, and more.

One of the causes, however, is hormonal. Women tend to get spider veins in a higher frequency then men, and one possible explanation may be because women go thru more hormonal changes and fluctuations.

For example, hormonal changes occur during puberty, pregnancy, and menopause.

Moreover, women often "artificially" manipulate their hormones via estrogen, progesterone, or birth control pills.

In short, some experts believe there is a spider veins hormonal connection.

Many women understandably want to know if the prevention of spider veins is possible.

Here are some strategies to employ in the prevention of spider veins:

• wear sunscreen
• exercise on a consistent basis (it's believed spider veins are also the resutl of or can be exacerbated by poor circulation)
• avoid standing for prolonged periods of time
• wear close fitting stockings (but not too tight)
• limit your intake of sodium (salt)
