Nausea and vomiting of pregnancy: Effects on quality of life and day‐to‐day function

Abstract

NVP is a physically morbid disease, affecting most pregnancies. NVP has a significant detrimental impact on QoL, especially physical QoL and work function. Despite this, we found low treatment utilisation, even in those with moderate/severe symptoms. Women should be encouraged to seek assistance for NVP and further education is required to improve practitioner awareness and management.
