Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Why is the right side of my stomach higher at five months pregnant?Doctor's answer:
Hello, this situation is normal and does not require treatment. It is not a disease, so please do not worry. Your diet should be light and avoid spicy or irritating foods. Drink plenty of water. Pregnancy symptoms usually appear around week 6. They typically last until the third month of pregnancy, but every person's experience is different. The duration of early pregnancy symptoms is related to individual hormone levels. Some people may experience longer symptoms, lasting until 16–18 weeks. If the early pregnancy symptoms are particularly severe, with frequent nausea and vomiting, inability to eat, and potentially leading to dehydration and metabolic disorders, it is advisable to seek medical attention at a hospital for diagnosis and treatment.
