Hyperemesis Gravidarum

Often dismissed, misdiagnosed, or not taken seriously, Hyperemesis Gravidarum (HG) is one of the most serious and rare forms of pregnancy complications a woman can possibly face during a pregnancy. HG most often is compared to its milder counterpart NVP (Nausea and Vomiting in Pregnancy), also commonly referred to as morning sickness. Morning sickness is considered a healthy and normal part of a pregnancy, that does not persist into the later trimesters, accompanied with very mild symptoms of light vomiting and nausea. However, HG is accompanied with similar symptoms, only much more violent, severe, and persistent, to the point that it drives to the brink of their sanity. With 1 out of 3 HG patient contemplating suicide, and 1 out 5 patients terminating their pregnancy, HG is a very real and agonizing condition. We here at Antai Hospital, with our HCG Desensitizer can treat the underlying root cause

NVP affects up to 70% of pregnant women, where as HG affects approximately 1-2% of all pregnancies.

Causes

Here at Antai Hospital, through years of research and investigation, our researchers have come to the scientific conclusion that the cause of HG amongst pregnant women has to be closely related to HCG but is not the direct cause of HG. We understand that there is something triggering and activating the Chemoreceptor Triggering Zone (CTZ) in the vomiting centre in such a way that it causes HG.

Our doctors have determined that these women have abnormally high amounts of these “HCG-Chemoreceptors” or they have hypersensitive HCG-Chemoreceptors compared to regular, normal women who do not develop HG.

Due to a combination of these 2 factors or one of the two, pregnant women develop HG when these free-flowing HCG molecules bind to these receptors in the vomiting centre, triggering a “Central Sensitisation” leading to the distinct HG symptoms that we know of including violent vomiting, extreme nausea, insomnia, excessive salivation etc.

Symptoms

Vomiting

You may experience extreme nausea and vomiting during your pregnancy which persists throughout the pregnancy

Insomnia

Insomnia is one of the common neurological symptoms caused by the HCG allergy. You may experience severe insomnia for up to several days, leading to emotional and mental instability.

Excessive salivation

Your salivary glands produce more saliva than average, leading to drooling. This is caused by the over-stimulation of the M3 receptors (Muscarinic acetylcholine receptor M3) in the salivary gland’s smooth muscles.

Other symptoms include:

• Dehydration
• Malnutrition
• Pale complexion
• Hyperthyroidism (T3, T4)
• Weight loss during pregnancy
• A decrease in urinary volume
• Low blood pressure

Diagnosis

Beside a clear observation of patient’s symptoms, we will also conduct a standard blood test to measure the electrolyte levels in their body, severity of dehydration, malnutrition, and hormonal levels (specifically T3, T4). We will also check for anti-embryonic antibodies if you have a history of recurrent miscarriage.

It is very likely that patients who have experienced Hyperemesis previously will most likely develop it in their current or subsequent pregnancies.

Treatment

Here at Antai Hospital, we firmly believe that an effective treatment only comes with an accurate diagnosis. To effectively treat Hyperemesis, we must treat all the root causes as shown below:

Desensitizer treatment

• It is an Antai proprietary prescription medication (compound medication) administered orally or via injections. Depending on your Hyperemesis’ severity, we may issue the desensitizer throughout your pregnancy until you begin to recover.
• The prescription desensitizer is easy to administer and:
  1. It does not produce side effects.
  2. It is not teratogenic.
  3. It is highly effective.

Progesterone Supplementary Treatment

• We will administer progesterone supplementary treatment to boost your progesterone levels to healthy conditions. Antai Hospital has specialized methods to accurately determine the exact amount of progesterone that is required.
• Supplement any other insufficient pregnancy hormones (Thyroid hormones, estrogen, PLT, etc.) to healthy levels to sustain a healthy pregnancy.

Treatment for Hyperthyroidism

• Antithyroid medication such as methimazole may be administered to reduce the over-activity of the thyroid glands, but it is not a must.
• Hyperthyroidism usually goes away once Hyperemesis is treated.

Immunity factors

If you test positive for the anti-embryonic antibodies, Antai hospital will administer its patented and highly effective immunotherapy to treat and prevent future recurrent immunological miscarriage.

Additional Information:

How does Hyperemesis cause recurrent immunological miscarriage?

Hyperemesis will cause malnutrition and Hyperthyroidism, which leads to corpus luteum insufficiency. This can cause miscarriage and potentially recurrent miscarriage during pregnancies.

If you have a history of miscarriages or fetal Demise (induced abortion) caused by Hyperemesis, there is a high risk for you to develop recurrent immunological miscarriage.

After undergoing multiple D & C procedures, the fetal cells containing paternal genes may have entered the mother’s bloodstream. This triggers an immune reaction, generating anti-embryonic antibodies in the mother’s body. In subsequent pregnancies, the anti-embryonic antibodies readily attack the growing embryo, causing an inevitable miscarriage. This type of miscarriage is known as a recurrent immunological miscarriage.

Antai Hospital has patented and highly effective immunotherapy that can prevent future immunological RSA. Read more here.
