What Causes Green Stool During Pregnancy?

Hello, I am currently pregnant and I have been experiencing severe morning sickness. However this morning, I notice what appeared to be stomach bile (witch is usually yellow or orange for me) was off colour almost a dark green/almost black thick string substance. Should I be more concerned. Thanks.

Hello,

I think you should be concerned not for the green like feces but for black tarry feces. The black substance may show melena or blood coming out of your gastrointestinal tract and this needs further evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Olgeta Xhufka, General & Family Physician
