We conducted a retrospective cohort study to investigate the relationship between nausea and vomiting in pregnancy (NVP) and dysmenorrhea measured by a verbal rating scale. Our research included 443 pregnant women, divided into those experiencing NVP and a control group.
From our findings, we noticed a clear association between moderate to severe dysmenorrhea and a heightened risk of NVP, especially during the first trimester. This suggests that those with painful menstrual symptoms may face an increased likelihood of nausea and vomiting as part of their pregnancy experience.
Importantly, we also examined the impact of periconceptional supplementation with docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). Our results indicated that taking DHA could potentially lower the risk of NVP, offering a glimmer of hope for managing nausea during pregnancy. This suggests that combining DHA with standard prenatal care might be beneficial for those who struggle with these symptoms.
Overall, our study sheds light on the intricate connections between menstrual pain and pregnancy-related nausea, emphasizing the potential protective role of DHA in improving women's health during this time.

All tests are perfect. I began taking it in my first trimester and continue at 27 weeks. It helped with my toxicosis, causing belching but no nausea. The capsules are small and easy to swallow. Just ensure they are stored in the fridge, as heat causes a fishy smell. Omega has helped maintain my blood quality. I have monthly tests, and my platelets and erythrocytes are normal. I recommend it for health.

This is my first purchase with Nordic Naturals, and based on reviews. They are easy to swallow, smaller than pre-natal vitamins, and there is no fishy taste or burps afterwards. They are gentle on my stomach with no nausea.

Excellent for pregnant women, contributing to the health, weight, and intelligence of the fetus. It is vital to take folic acid during pregnancy, preferably from the third month, and this type does not increase nausea.

100% recommend to new mothers. My doctor informed me the only prenatal I could take without throwing up lacked DHA. I did lots of research and looked at countless honest reviews, and this product far exceeded its competitors. I have had no issues. I have been on this supplement since the first trimester, and I am now 33 weeks. No unpleasant aftertaste, no nausea ever, and it smells like strawberries.

While pregnant, my doctor advised taking DHA, but the previous one was hard to swallow, and it had a fishy smell. I found this one, and the small, elliptical capsules are easy to take without any odour! It is pleasant to continue during pregnancy.
