3 out of 4 women suffer from pregnancy nausea. That’s because….
Nausea and vomiting are very common in pregnancy: affects over 50% of pregnant women. These disorders are particularly intense during the first months of pregnancy, especially on waking up or after breakfast. The annoying feeling of nausea in pregnancy tends to increase at the sight of food, in presence of intense smells and it is often accompanied by sialorrhea (abundant salivation).
The causes of nausea in pregnancy are not unknown, however several studies link this disorder to increase in the concentrations of some hormones such as estrogen, progesterone and beta HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin). Generally, women who show this symptom have: previous family history or first pregnancy with nausea during pregnancy, twin pregnancies, strong sensitivity to smells, gastroesophageal reflux. Several studies have also found that a deficiency of vitamin B6 may be a trigger for pregnancy nausea.
