Disease/Condition Glossary
Morning sickness (nausea and vomiting): It is a common symptom of pregnancy. It is usually happening within the first trimester (first four months) of pregnancy, but some pregnant women have it throughout pregnancy. In some cases, pregnant women experience excessive nausea and vomiting that progresses to a condition called hyperemesis gravidarum. It causes electrolyte imbalances and weight loss in pregnant women. The most common cause of morning sickness is increased hormone levels during the first weeks of pregnancy. Nausea is an uneasy feeling in the stomach that may come and go in waves in which a person feels a strong urge to vomit. It happens before vomiting. While vomiting is a natural response of the body in which a person wants to expel stomach contents from the mouth forcefully. It can be triggered by taste, anxiety, smell, pain or irritation to the stomach.
