Patient's question:
I have a condition called hyperemesis gravidarum. Can preventive measures and treatment work when there's some pain? Appreciate your help: Please help me diagnose this with a doctor. Thank you, doctor.Doctor's answer:
Medically, this is referred to as pregnancy reaction or morning sickness. You can take medications that do not interfere with the fetus, such as vitamin B6 or metoclopramide, which are antiemetics and gastric motility enhancers. Avoid taking metoclopramide and other antiemetics that can affect the fetus. Drink plenty of water, eat small meals frequently, and try to consume foods you are willing to eat to stimulate your appetite. Gradually recover, and it will improve over time.
