Hemorrhoids: Varicose veins near the anus are called hemorrhoids. They are common during pregnancy. They can come back later in life but they usually don't. Avoid constipation to help prevent them.

Sometimes: Veins in your vaginal area can return later in life and can be a sign of venous insufficieny of some of the pelvic veins. Many times these will go away and never return and primarily are caused by the pressure of the baby and uterus on the veins of the pelvis. There are also hormonal changes and changes in fluid balance that occur during pregnancy that can lead to these varicose veins.

Sometimes: The enlarged veins on your bottom that first appear during pregnancy do shrink a significant amount after delivery. They may no longer be noticeable to you but they almost never go away entirely. With subsequent pregnancies they often get worse. If they don't go away at all, they can cause pelvic pain, menstrual pain, pain with sex, and varicose veins in the legs. Fortunately, they can be treated.
