Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose:Doctor, I am currently 32 weeks pregnant and have occasional nausea similar to that in early pregnancy. Last Tuesday, I had some tests including liver function, and I now have a blood test report but don't know which item it is for. Is the test result normal? If it is not normal, what impact will it have? Thank you for your help!
The test report is as follows:
Estriol
Result: 5.13 ng/ml
Reference Value: 26-28 weeks pregnant >4.1
Doctor's answer:
Nausea in the late stages of pregnancy is generally not directly related to pregnancy. Based on your description, it could be caused by acute gastritis due to improper diet or motion sickness. It is recommended that you temporarily refrain from eating and visit the internal medicine department to check if it is acute gastritis, then receive targeted treatment. At this time, you should eat light meals and avoid greasy foods. Eat small, frequent meals, keep some biscuits nearby, and eating more fruits will be beneficial.
