Why does this phenomenon accompany pregnancy?
When does toxicosis begin in pregnant women? Every woman desires to receive an answer to this question, which is attentive to pregnancy. What are the causes of such a phenomenon as toxemia in pregnancy, what to do? As you know, the formation of the placenta does not end before 16 weeks. Up to this point, the placenta does not have a sufficient degree of protection to preserve the integrity of the woman's body from the metabolic products that the child allocates. There is such a picture: as a result of ingestion of these substances into the blood, intoxication develops. Outwardly, all this manifests itself in this way: nausea, vomiting, etc. The second reason, which should be mentioned, is the increased level of hCG in pregnant women. It is he who stimulates the formation of hormones important for pregnancy, such as progesterone and estrogens. If everything goes to the proper level, then in the future, the production of these hormones will placenta. Another reason is hormonal changes. Their presence is the cause of the excitability of the centers of smell, of touch. As a result, a pregnant woman develops something that was not previously observed: nausea, vomiting, rejection of a wide variety of odors. There is a point of view about the causes of toxicosis in pregnant women, according to which the hereditary factor influences the onset of toxicosis. The essence of this opinion is the following: if the mother of the pregnant woman had no signs of toxicosis, then the daughter will not be marked. 
Toxicosis and early gestation
At present, there are very few suchpregnant women who do not have complaints of vomiting in the first trimester. First of all, you should separate the vomiting as a sign of pregnancy and vomiting during toxemia. Ordinary vomiting occurs in the morning hours, often no more than 2-3 times before meals. Significantly, its manifestation during toxemia in the early stages. In this period, vomiting is not associated with any time intervals. It occurs regardless of food intake, seizures are characterized by sufficient frequency and regularity. To the pregnant mother herself, toxicosis of pregnant women has some influence: there is weakness, in some cases there is a significant loss in weight, there is some change in the perception of a variety of smells and flavors. Isolate a mild degree of gestosis (toxicosis during pregnancy). During this period, the pregnant woman notes the occurrence of nausea and vomiting. The frequency of it is at least 4-5 times a day. There is a decrease in efficiency. In some cases, there is even an increase in heart rate. Overcome such a toxicosis is quite possible at home, but with the recommendations of the treating doctor-gynecologist. Severe vomiting has more severe consequences.

This state is very difficult to affect a woman's feelings. There may be dizziness, severe headaches. In some cases even a state of euphoria develops. There is some decrease in weight. Depletion is allowed. It is necessary to pay special attention to severe toxicosis and begin immediate treatment, since there is a risk of termination of pregnancy.

In the late term of pregnancy,This should not be the case for all the laws of medicine. If nevertheless there is a vomiting and a nausea and there is all this often enough and it is regular, it is possible to speak safely about complication, named gestoz. Its signs are as follows: when testing, a significant amount of protein in the urine is found, edemas appear, there is an increase in weight of the pregnant woman (more than 400 g per week), blood pressure indicators are also quite high (at least 130/100). It should be understood that the presence of an excessive number of listed symptoms indicates a fairly serious condition of a pregnant woman. A timely call to a doctor will help to avoid negative consequences. Treatment of gestosis is carried out taking into account the degree of severity.
