What are the causes of hemorrhoids in women?

Nowadays people's living conditions are getting better and better, but the pressure is also getting greater and greater. Many people suffer from hemorrhoids. Many people are concerned about the confusion that occurs when women suffer from hemorrhoids. This is mainly because many female friends do not understand the cause of this disease. Therefore, we must find out the cause of this disease. So what are the causes of hemorrhoids in women?

Causes of hemorrhoids in women

Experts say that according to statistics, the number of female hemorrhoid patients is much higher than that of male patients, which further confirms the saying that "ten out of ten women have hemorrhoids". So, what is the reason for women to have hemorrhoids? Are hemorrhoids harmful to women?

1. Local irritation and improper diet:

Exposure to cold or heat in the anus, constipation, diarrhea, excessive drinking and eating spicy food can all irritate the anus and rectum, causing congestion in the hemorrhoidal venous plexus, affecting venous blood return and resulting in a decrease in the resistance of the venous wall.

2. Increased anal venous pressure:

Cirrhosis, liver congestion and incomplete compensation of cardiac function can all cause congestion and increased pressure in the anal veins, affecting the return of blood in the rectal veins.

3. Increased intra-abdominal pressure:

Intra-abdominal tumors, uterine tumors, ovarian tumors, prostate hypertrophy, pregnancy, overeating or sitting on the toilet for too long can all increase intra-abdominal pressure and hinder venous blood return.

4. Anal infection:

The hemorrhoidal venous plexus is first inflamed due to acute or chronic infection, and the elastic tissue of the venous wall gradually becomes fibrotic and weakened, resulting in insufficient resistance, which leads to enlargement and varicose veins. Combined with other reasons, the varicose veins gradually worsen and form hemorrhoids.

5. Professional relationship:

Standing or sitting for a long time, or carrying heavy loads for a long time while walking long distances, will affect venous return, slow down blood flow in the pelvis and cause congestion of abdominal organs, leading to excessive filling of hemorrhoidal veins, decreased tension of venous walls, and easy dilation of blood vessels due to congestion. Insufficient exercise, reduced intestinal motility, slow downward movement of feces, or habitual constipation can compress and stimulate the veins, causing local congestion and blood reflux obstruction, resulting in increased pressure in the hemorrhoidal veins and reduced resistance of the venous wall.

6. Anatomical reasons:

When a person is standing or sitting, the anus and rectum are located at the lower part. Due to gravity and the pressure of internal organs, the upward venous return is greatly hindered. The rectal veins and their branches lack venous valves, so blood cannot flow back easily and is prone to congestion. Its blood vessels are arranged in a special way and pass through the muscular layer at different heights, which makes them easily compressed by fecal matter, affecting blood return.

The above are the causes of hemorrhoids in women. I think everyone is already very clear through this introduction. I hope the above content can be helpful to female friends. At the same time, we should also pay more attention to women's health and exercise women's bodies more so as to better prevent the occurrence of women's diseases. Finally, I wish all female friends can live a happy life!
