However, in women. In particular, tribenoside + lidocaine can be safely despite the high prevalence of hemorrhoids in women administered in postpartum women and in pregnant women and the major impact of this condition on quality of life, after the first trimester of pregnancy. In pregnant women, specific evidence and recommendations on the treatment of the tribenoside/lidocaine combination significantly improved hemorrhoids in women are scant.
