How should pregnant women deal with stomach bloating and nausea?

Patient's question:

I'm 13 weeks pregnant. All day long, I've been feeling nauseous and don't want to eat anything. My stomach feels very bloated, and I feel like I want to vomit but can't. Eating anything causes pain. In the earlier stages, I didn't have such severe reactions. What's going on?

Doctor's answer:

This is a symptom of early pregnancy. Generally, it reappears around 6 weeks after a missed period. For severe cases, it is recommended to take vitamin B6 orally, 20 mg each time, three times a day. For mild cases, it can be resolved on its own. It will gradually disappear around 12 weeks.
Doctor's advice: For patients with severe stomach bloating, it is advised to seek medical attention promptly. Treatment should be based on the doctor's recommendations to avoid worsening the condition due to blindly relying on advertisements or over-the-counter medications. The above advice is for reference only.
We hope the above information can assist you. Thank you.
