Why pregnant women need compression socks?

.
For every woman, pregnancy is a beautiful period which is filled with hope and joy. In addition, it is also a very special period for their body, which must now care “of two” people at the same time. As pregnancy progresses and reduced mobility, the legs will be affected. Feeling of tension or heaviness in the legs, tingling sensation at night and leg cramps are the typical complaints of a pregnant woman.

Due to the hormonal change in the body, the veins in the legs increase their capacity for blood and distend significantly more than usual. At the same time the elasticity of the vascular walls deteriorates. This unfortunate interaction – all the more if you have an inherited disposition towards venous disorder, may lead to the venous valves that are responsible for blood transport towards the heart which can no longer closing properly and the blood pooling in the legs instead.

Moreover, the pressure of the growing womb on the pelvic veins plays its role. TXG compression stockings which created by the most luxury and comfortable fabric, TENCEL®, helps you to prevent noticeably and visibly vein problems during pregnancy without any side effects.
