Fort Wayne BACK PAIN ISSUES RELATED TO PREGNANCY: Osteoporosis & Degenerative Spondylolisthesis

Women with pregnancy-related Fort Wayne back pain are welcomed at Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc. 76% of pregnant women in a new study described pregnancy-related back pain. Women who had back pain prior to pregnancy experienced a higher risk of pain throughout pregnancy. (1) For post-menopausal women on the whole there is a bigger risk of osteoporosis because of the rapid bone loss attributed to estrogen depletion. Factors like obesity, age at menarche, breastfeeding, and parity also contribute. In a recent report, the prevalence for osteoporosis was 35.24%. Specifically, the risk for post-menopausal osteoporosis rose 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 increases the risk of acquiring degenerative spondylolisthesis by 22%. A hysterectomy doubles a woman’s chances. Why? It is proposed that it is due to low back pain and decreased abdominal muscles during and after pregnancy that establishes the spine for this condition. (3) One study stresses the fact that weak abdominal muscles affect the stability of the spine and likely play a part in the condition called degenerative spondylolisthesis. This condition is more usual in women. (4) Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc gently treats and relieves pain of spondylolisthesis much to the pleasure of our Fort Wayne chiropractic patients!
