  I don’t know if it’s woman only, but they are definitely more likely since hormones are a relevant factor. Your veins are another factor, in German we call this “schwere Beine” (“heavy legs” since they feel kinda tired and tingly). Water accumulates in your leg and feed and this can make them look swollen, feel tired and prevents me in the afternoon from putting on the same shoes I was effortlessly wearing in the early morning.

      Yes, absolutely but the hormone that causes / worsens this issue is estrogen. I googled it just now, before that I knew this as a “typical women problem” that’s why I wasn’t clear enough
