After giving birth, did any of you have hemorrhoids so bad that you had to have them removed by surgery? How long did you have them for, and what was the surgery like? How was recovery? I had my daughter 2 months ago, and I may have to get this done. =[
Thanks!

is it possible to get hemorrhoids from strainning while giving birth.

I just had it done with laser, 3 large clusters I was told. It is now on day 5 after and I am counting the days. even the hours! until the time I have "heard" I will be back to normal.
If you rate giving birth on a "Pain-scale" of 1 to 10 and it comes in at a 5 then this is so far off the end, I would have to give it a new number of it’s own. Maybe 20?
If anyone has has this procedure recently and can give me a timeline, a REAL timeline, for recovery, just knowing when it will end would make me feel a lot better.
Also if you know of any support groups where people who are in recovery or familar with this situation can "chat", it would be nice to hear from other people.

Okay so Ive been feeling weird sitting down sometimes almost like Maybe there was an accident Or something,and then I would check constantly and there was nothing there, Nothing in my pants, And just thought I was imagining and felt itch butt… Sorry tmi… well i took a mirror, and I have at least one hemorrhoid its coming out of my anus…. Im really embarrassed, And Im only 25 weeks & 4 days. Ive read you can get pregnancy hemorrhoids and Or from child birth or before. Ive never had any before hand I had once before fissures which were just little cuts that i was given hemorrhoid cream for and they went away. It is painful when i go the bathroom And I just thought It was because my foods being digested more slowly for the baby. Ive missed my doctors appointment because im at my parents house, and in the middle of moving and having to switch doctors so I wont be able too see a doctor for about a month. And was just wondering has anyone had this, and what are the treatments available, During pregnancy and afterwards??? Especially if it wont go away… I read it can clear itself up. But Ive had every crappy symptom that comes with pregnancy so far so im really not thinking its going to go away on its own especially not after giving birth since this is my first baby.

Please any advise from mothers that have had this or know what the options are. Im not going to take anything until I talk to my doctor but i just wanted to know during or after to get rid of them what the options are?

thank you!!!!

Am I suppose to still have hemorrhoids 6 months after giving birth? I drink plenty of fluids, 90 onces of water a day to be exact and I take some Metamucil Fiber Powder. I also have really bad constipation and I went 3 months without having a bowel movement. My hemroids are bloody and a little painful. I havent really lost any pregnancy weight, just a couple pounds here or there. I’ve been working my a** of at the gym lately. That scale doesnt want to budge! Is it normal to have hemorrhoids and constipation 6 months after pregnancy?
Sorry if I posted this in the wrong categories… I didnt know where to put it.
