I've been experiencing a lot of nausea and vomiting, especially in the mornings. I was curious to know which hormone is usually responsible for causing all this morning sickness during pregnancy?

Don't stress too much about the scientific names, but it is mainly hCG and estrogen doing their crazy dance. It will get better soon, trust me!

Beta, it is mostly the hCG hormone peaks that cause this nausea. Take proper rest and drink small sips of water throughout the day, ok?

It's the famous hCG hormone showing its power! 😅 Don't worry, it usually settles down after the first trimester is over.

I'm in my 14th week and still feel like throwing up because of these hormones. Anyone else felt the same even in the second trimester?

My gynac said hCG spikes cause this. I found that doing light morning walks really helped with digeston, but only do it if doctor allows.

It's the hCG hormone acting up, which is actually a great sign your pregnancy is strong. Keep some dry biscuits by your bed and eat before getting up.
