Hyperemesis Gravidarum, Nausea and Vomiting in Pregnancy (NVP) & Recurrent Miscarriage
Hyperemesis Gravidarum, in recent years has gained more traction as a serious and potentially causing both maternal and fetal morbidity. HG is known to cause severe pregnancy complications that are psychological, neurological, cardiological and being persistent throughout the pregnancy. The persistent component is the defining factor that causes it to be so deadly to women who suffer from it.
The most extreme form of nausea and vomiting in pregnancy (NVP); Hyperemesis Gravidarum (HG), severely affects women’s wellbeing and inhibits performance of normal daily living, including work, whether paid or unpaid as family/house caretakers. Women with HG often require hospitalization, explaining why this condition is the most common reason for hospitalization during the first trimester of pregnancy.
There are many symptoms associated with Hyperemesis (please read our other articles on this topic), and depending on each patient and severity, there are variations of Hyperemesis that have specific predominant symptoms, and for those that have severely aggravated pre-existing disorders alongside of Hyperemesis. The diagnosis criteria are not fixed: but distinct indications include loss of weight, severe vomiting, severe nausea, insomnia, excessive salivation, and electrolyte imbalance, to name a few.
Recurrent miscarriage is defined as a pregnancy loss that occurs more than 2 consecutive times, roughly on the same gestation week. Although many experts and researchers on HG do not believe it to be a cause for recurrent miscarriage, we here at Antai do believe it to be one of the most important causes behind repeated miscarriages.
Women who suffer from HG require to go through severe symptoms that put their lives in danger, with no current effective management available for them to effectively treat the condition. Due to this reason, many women choose to terminate their pregnancy due to being unable to withstand the severe symptoms. Hospitals and doctors either are unable to alleviate their symptoms or simply refusing to recognize HG as a real disorder, prompting them to do this as much as they do not want to. This form of voluntary termination of the pregnancy appears to be the only way women can escape HG.
Over time, when this destructive process of terminating pregnancy via D&C procedure whenever HG begins developing (roughly gestational week 6 or7), this causes damaging and lasting effects. Not only are you prone to develop intrauterine adhesions, damage of the endometrium which alone may cause fertility and pregnancy issues down the line, it causes the mother to develop an immune response (anti-embryonic antibodies) towards the pregnancy with the same partner.
Due to the repeated induced abortions, tissue of the fetus has a high risk of entering the mother’s circulatory system. The immune system recognizes it and generates these specific antibodies. So, in subsequent pregnancies, these women who have a history of Hyperemesis now experience a far earlier miscarriage caused by the immune response. This time, hyperemesis has no chance of even developing and the pregnancy has already been lost. This has now developed into an advanced recurrent miscarriage.
