Patient's question:
Medical Description: Female patient, 22 years old. Previously in good health. Status after yesterday's hospital examination: 1. Vomited while sleeping last night; 2. Vomited again this morning upon waking. Previous Treatment and Effectiveness: No examination was conducted. Desired Help: Please ask the doctor if this phenomenon is normal; is it necessary to go to the hospital for an examination?Doctor's answer:
General pregnancy can also present with such symptoms, and nausea and vomiting after pregnancy are normal. This reaction varies from person to person—some experience severe symptoms, while others have mild reactions. Your situation should be considered normal. If you're still concerned, you can have a check-up, which is also a good idea. Pregnant women can appropriately supplement their diet with dairy products, eggs, legumes, and nuts. During the early stages of pregnancy, it's important to consume folic acid, as it is crucial for the development of the fetus's nervous system. A lack of folic acid during pregnancy can easily lead to neural tube defects in the fetus, such as anencephaly or spina bifida, and also increases the risk of cleft lip and palate.
