Juneau BACK PAIN ISSUES RELATED TO PREGNANCY: Osteoporosis & Degenerative Spondylolisthesis

Women with pregnancy-related Juneau back pain are welcomed at Aurora Chiropractic Center. 76% of pregnant women in a new study reported 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 better risk of osteoporosis because of the fast bone loss attributed to estrogen reduction. Factors like obesity, age at menarche, breastfeeding, and parity also contribute. In a new report, the prevalence for osteoporosis was 35.24%. Particularly, 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 ups the risk of developing degenerative spondylolisthesis by 22%. A hysterectomy increases twofold a woman’s chances. Why? It’s suggested that it is because of low back pain and reduced abdominal muscles during and after pregnancy that sets up the spine for this condition. (3) One study stresses the fact that weak abdominal muscles affect the stability of the spine and likely promote the condition known as degenerative spondylolisthesis. This condition is more usual in women. (4) Aurora Chiropractic Center gently treats and relieves pain of spondylolisthesis much to the liking of our Juneau chiropractic patients!
