Re: 'varicose vein' around my right overy From: Micha (anonymous@obgyn.net) Thu, 2 Aug 2001 10:47:07 -0500 (CDT) Messages sorted by: [ date ][ thread ][ subject ][ author ] Next message: timber: "My Good News" Previous message: Heather: "Re: New here and confused about pco" I have had pelvic varicose veins for 15 years. They can be excruciatingly painful. I have controlled the pain hormonally by short term use of the pill, and other hormone meds which give my ovaries a rest now and then. Some women however need to have surgery for them. They are caused by veins that are working improperly (like leg varicose veins)and the blood back flows into them causing pain. You'll likely find more relief while lying down. Sitting and standing make them worse. Some women get them in pregnancy. Again due to hormonal changes. I've been told by many docs they are not dangerous. Veins can expand tremendously without problems. Many women in pregnancy get pelvic varicose veins but never have any pain and docs don't seem to know why. You should continue to pursue with your doctors your physical discomfort. Keep pushing them until you get to the heart of the matter. And please let us know what happens. Good luck!
