Patient's question:

Vomiting fresh blood
Medical history: None
Others: What illness is this? I suspect it's related to the stomach. Could it be due to the fetus?
Doctor's answer:
According to the situation you mentioned, if the vomiting is caused by pregnancy, it is likely due to long-term vomiting leading to damage of the gastric mucosa, which results in bleeding. As long as it is not a large amount of blood being vomited, it is not a serious issue. First, this situation requires a visit to the hospital for an electrolyte test. Due to the severe vomiting, it may lead to electrolyte and acid-base imbalance, so it is best to get checked. Then, through intravenous fluids and supplements such as vitamins and amino acids, the pregnancy-induced vomiting can be controlled. I hope my answer helps you.
