This is so uncomfortable to even ask but the piles have started in my third trimester and sitting is becoming painful. constipation is making it worse na. Anyone went through this, what gave u some relief at home?
Piles got bad for me in pregnancy and my doctor guided me with safe options, so please dont use random creams on your own. Keeping stools soft with fiber and water helped most. Definitely mention it to your gynac, no need to feel shy.
Warm water soaks and eating more fruit, oats and water really eased mine. I avoided spicy food which was triggering it. But if there is heavy bleeding or severe pain, please see your doctor right away.
Lots of fiber, plenty of water and not straining on the toilet is key. A warm sitz bath gave me real relief. Dont sit too long and avoid constipation, that makes it worse. Ask your doctor before any cream though.
