Largo BACK PAIN ISSUES RELATED TO PREGNANCY: Osteoporosis & Degenerative Spondylolisthesis
Women with pregnancy-related Largo back pain are welcomed at Hollstrom & Associates Inc. 76% of pregnant women in a recent study described pregnancy-related back pain. Women who had back pain before getting pregnant experienced a higher risk of pain throughout pregnancy. (1) For post-menopausal women in general there is a better risk of osteoporosis because of the fast bone loss due to estrogen reduction. Factors like obesity, age at menarche, breastfeeding, and parity also contribute. In a new study, the prevalence for osteoporosis was 35.24%. Specifically, the risk for post-menopausal osteoporosis increased with the number of children a woman had (higher at more than 4 children) and with the older age (highest at over 35 years) of the mother at the last childbirth. (2) Each full-term pregnancy ups the risk of acquiring degenerative spondylolisthesis by 22%. A hysterectomy increases twofold a woman’s chances. Why? It is suggested that it’s due to low back pain and reduced abdominal muscles during and after pregnancy that sets up the spine for this condition. (3) One study points out the fact that weak abdominal muscles influence the stability of the spine and likely contribute to the condition known as degenerative spondylolisthesis. This condition is more usual in women. (4) Hollstrom & Associates Inc gently treats and eases pain of spondylolisthesis much to the pleasure of our Largo chiropractic patients!
