Pregnancy is the beginning of many changes in a woman's body. The penis is growing, hormones are doing their job, every day brings new, never-before-seen sensations.The body is changing and now it has to do more to provide the baby with what it needs. The volume of circulating blood increases - on average by 40-50% above the level that was before pregnancy. The action of hormones loosens the connective tissue and prepares the body's muscles for childbirth. The composition of your blood also changes, allowing fluid to enter the tissues more easily.
These new conditions are a special challenge for your legs, now blood clots in them more easily. It increases the risk of couperosis, varicose veins and thrombosis.

compression tights in early pregnancy reduce symptoms of nausea and vomiting? Similar to drugs intended for this purpose.
