What Cause Hyperacidity During Pregnancy?
I am a pregnant woman of 29, 11 weeks pregnant to be precise. I think I have been having hyperacidity, cos I eat yet in no time i am very hungry with stomach pains, I vomit a lot, sometimes bile. I eat yet I have to wake up at night because of stomach pain, I dont take alchohol so what is the cause of this and how can i avoid it or cure it?
