There is this constant metallic taste in my mouth since weeks and everything tastes bitter, matlab even water feels weird. Im 10 weeks now. When did it go away for u all? its driving me mad.
This is just because of estrogen spikes in early pregnancy and usually clears up by week 14. Keep up your oral hygiene, brush your tongue, and try rinsing with mild salt water to get some relief.
Oh, I kept thinking something was seriously wrong with my liver or teeth because of that awful metal taste! It actually lasted till my 16th week and then suddenly disappeared, so try not to panic like I did.
That metallic taste usually goes away after the first trimester, around week 13 or 14. Try sucking on lemon candy or drinking citrus juice, it really helps to clear it.
I had that metallic taste for the first 3 months and it made me hate water. Sucking on ginger lozenges and drinking cold water with lemon slices helped me get through it until it finally stopped.
I know how irritating and exhausting it is to have that constant bad taste in your mouth, it makes eating so hard. For most moms, it gets much better by the second trimester, so hang in there, you are doing great.
