How can you treat piles when you’re pregnant or breastfeeding?

There are many suitable treatments you can use whilst pregnant or breast-feeding, however, it is important you consult your doctor, midwife or pharmacist before using any medicine at this time. They are likely to recommend a treatment such as Germoloids.

The Germoloids range of products contains a local anaesthetic for fast relief of pain and discomfort, as well as an astringent to help reduce swelling and shrink the piles. Germoloids is available in all leading pharmacies and supermarkets and nothing is more effective at treating the symptoms of piles.

When choosing your treatment please remember that Germoloids HC Spray contains hydrocortisone and is not suitable for use during pregnancy. Please check with your pharmacist if you are in any doubt about this.
