Would another pregnancy endanger the valves in the deep system after EVLT?

Asked By:ursulaq4 in Colorado Springs, CO

I had EVLT on the great and small saphenous veins (both legs) along with some phlebectomies. Would another pregnancy endanger the valves in the deep system since the superficial ones were ablated?
