I'm on my 4th pregnancy, although I only have 1 living child. I'm now 8wks pregnant, and I've spotted off & on the entire pregnancy. Each time my Dr advised that as long as it's not red, gets worse, or is accompanied with cramping it's probably just the 'norma' early pregnancy spotting. After loosing 2 babies before, every time I see any spotting I start crying, but so far nothing's wrong. I hope all is well! Anytime you're concerned, call your Dr- that's what they're getting paid for

This is an excellent article about vulvar varicosities (vulvar varicose veins) which goes into lengthy detail about the condition, to whom it occurs and when, as well as what needs to be done to bring relief to those suffering from it.
Basically, there are three options:
- Compression Therapy
- Sclerotherapy
- Combinations of #'s 1 and 2
If during the course of your pregnancy, you develop varicose veins in the vulvar/vaginal region (vulvar varicosities) like I did during my pregnancy, you would be well advised to purchase a product called a V2 Supporter to help quell the varicose veins early on and nip them in the bud, so to speak. The product is a compression undergarment (like tight, padded panties), that is made in the USA by a Michigan-based company called It's You Babe.

There's a great article about the condition itself here: http://blogs.health24.com/vitaminpete/vulvar-varicosities/View Thread

This has also happened to me! I know you posted this three years ago but I would like to know if the discoloration went away. I also have this--it looks red/purple on the area on my rear end were I sit--as if I was sitting on a hard surface for a long time but it doesn't go away and as for the TMI...same here! I started noticing it at 22 weeks. Thanks for your help!View Thread
Personally, I'm just very thankful that I don't have to deal with that!
