Onset age of varicose vein

Pregnancy and delivery experiences were examined in regards to their impact towards the onset of varicose veins in the lower limbs, as it related to age. Subjects were patients with varicose veins in their lower limbs who visited a surgical clinic between Sep. 2004 and Mar. 2007. Data was derived through interviews and those three hundred seventy nine female patients who were aware of the onset age of their varicose veins were analyzed. The number of pregnancies/deliveries had significant influence for the onset age of varicose veins after the controlling effect from family history was considered. Patients who experienced more than two deliveries showed a younger onset age than one or no experience patients. However, minimum interval of deliveries and age at first/last delivery ages showed no significance for the onset age. An appropriate intervention, according to number of pregnancy or postpartum conditions, would decrease the risk of varicose veins and the hefty cost of beauty and health care over younger women.
