Why Do I Still Feel Nausea at Three Months of Pregnancy?
The first three months of pregnancy belong to the early stage of pregnancy, during which the chorionic gonadotropin hormone increases, causing symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, or excessive sleepiness in pregnant women. These are all normal early pregnancy reactions. Typically, these symptoms begin around the 5th to 6th week of pregnancy, and become more severe around the 8th to 10th week. After the 12th week of pregnancy, the HCG level gradually decreases, and the early pregnancy symptoms gradually ease or disappear. However, some women may still experience nausea and vomiting after the 12th week.
1. Menstrual cessation: If a woman of fertile age has regular menstrual cycles and misses her period for more than two weeks after sexual intercourse, it may be a sign of pregnancy.
2. Breast tenderness and swelling: In the early stages of pregnancy, the breasts may also exhibit symptoms such as darker areolas, prominent veins under the skin, and prominent nipples.
3. Abdominal pain: In early pregnancy, the uterus enlarges, stimulating the lower edge of the ribs, which may cause dull pain in the ribs or pain due to relaxation and separation of the pubic symphysis. Another cause of abdominal pain is the implantation of the fertilized egg.
4. Nausea and vomiting: Women in the early stages of pregnancy often experience nausea and vomiting, especially in the morning. However, these symptoms vary from person to person, with some experiencing mild symptoms and others experiencing severe symptoms.
