Everything i eat tastes weird and my mouth feels bitter all day, even water tastes off. First trimester here. Is this normal ya something to worry about? its actually putting me off food completely.
Haan haan, ye toh sabko hota hai pregnancy mein. Mere saath bhi hua tha, sab kuch kadwa lagta tha. Main toh bas zyada pani peeti thi aur nimbu pani banati thi ghar pe. Thoda sa pudina bhi chabati thi kabhi kabhi. Yeh hormones ka hi khel hai, dheere dheere theek ho jaata hai.
Yes, I remember that metallic or bitter taste, it's pretty annoying. It's due to hormonal shifts, called dysgeusia. While I was pregnant, my doctor advised me to be careful with what I ate, especially anything sugary, to mask the taste. Sugar-free mints or just brushing more often helped me. Best to stick to bland foods if it bothers you a lot.
Oh, bitter tongue, been there done that twice! It's super common in pregnancy because of hormone changes, mainly estrogen. Try chewing on some saunf (fennel seeds) or keep mints handy. And brush your tongue daily. It usually gets better after the first trimester.
A bitter tongue is quite a common complaint during pregnancy, often linked to hormonal changes. However, if it's really persistent or bothering you excessively, or if you have any other symptoms with it, it's always safest to mention it to your gynac during your next appointment. They can reassure you or check for any other reasons.
This is a very common pregnancy symptom known as dysgeusia or altered taste perception. My gynac explained it's primarily due to the significant hormonal fluctuations, especially increased estrogen levels. She suggested staying hydrated, trying citrusy foods or sour candies (if not diabetic), and maintaining good oral hygiene. It usually improves as pregnancy progresses.
Arre haan, ye toh hota hai! Sabko hoti hai kadwi zubaan pregnancy mein, bilkul normal hai na. Main toh nimbu paani peeti thi ya thodi saunf kha leti thi. Ya fir amla candy type kuch kha lo. Hormones ki wajah se hi hota hai. Don't worry, theek ho jayega.
Bitter tongue is definitely annoying and common in early pregnancy. It's mostly hormonal. I used to keep sugar-free mints or small pieces of ginger candy in my bag. Brushing twice a day, including your tongue, helps a lot too. It usually subsides by the second trimester, so hang in there!
