When you think about it, legs get a considerable amount of wear over the life of a person. They are walked on, carrying the weight of the body, and are stood on. Many people take a lot of pride in the way that their legs look, while there are others who have found something about their legs that they dislike.

In the case of older women, they often become dissatisfied with their legs when they see that a varicose vein has developed. Actually, this kind of vein does not just happen overnight. Rather, a varicose vein can be caused by a variety of different things, the first of which being pregnancy.

It is very easy to tell when a woman is pregnant because of her protruding stomach. This is not only indicative of the fetus that is growing inside, but it also has a lot to do with the extra weight that the woman needs to gain in order to successfully nourish both the baby and herself. This excess weight places more pressure on the legs and the circulation, and the result is often a varicose vein.

Many women also can get a varicose vein from sitting cross-legged for long periods of time. The crossed legs end up also hindering the circulation (that is why some people's legs become numb) and the pooled blood can cause this kind of vein. There are two main ways that this vein can be treated – medicinal injections, or laser therapy. Either one will have the vein slowly disappear, revealing healthier-looking legs.
