Thank you for viewing! While there is a general feeling of use, such as pilling, and some fuzzing on the Velcro parts, I believe it can still be used without issue for abdominal support. I found that wearing it in the late stages of my second trimester through the third trimester, when my belly was getting large and heavy, helped to reduce lower back pain! (This is a personal experience.) Please consider this item if you understand that it is a used item, has been stored at home, and has been inspected by a non-professional. ● Product Details (From the official website) Inujirushi maternity support belt type It firmly supports a large belly and supports the lower back. It crosses in the back and can be put on and taken off quickly with the Velcro tape. Adjustment is also easy! It has a three-dimensional design that fits a round belly, so it firmly supports the belly even in the final month of pregnancy.
