Hyperemesis Gravidarum (HG) is a complication in pregnancy characterized by symptoms including severe nausea, persistent vomiting, weight loss, and dehydration. 

Women are at higher risk for hyperemesis if they have had the problem in previous pregnancies or are prone to motion sickness.

Si bien la mayoría de las náuseas matutinas ya no se tienen dentro del primer trimestre, muchas personas que sufren de HG experimentan síntomas mucho más allá y durante el resto del embarazo.
