Morning sickness, or nausea and vomiting during pregnancy, commonly affects women in their first trimester. This condition is thought to result from hormonal changes, such as increased levels of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) and estrogen. Morning sickness generally has two types: mild nausea and vomiting or severe, persistent symptoms known as hyperemesis gravidarum, which can cause dehydration and weight loss. Symptoms typically include nausea, stomach upset, and frequent vomiting. Mild cases may be managed by eating smaller, more frequent meals and bland foods like crackers. Severe cases often require medical treatment, including hydration and medication, under a doctor’s guidance.
Hyperemesis gravidarum (HG) is a severe form of morning sickness during pregnancy, characterised by intense nausea, vomiting, and potential dehydration. Unlike typical morning sickness, HG can persist beyond the first trimester and may lead to weight loss, electrolyte imbalances, and other complications. Prompt diagnosis and treatment are crucial for managing symptoms and ensuring the well-being of both the mother and the baby.
