What Is The Treatment For Headache, Light And Smell Sensitivity During Pregnancy?

I am currently 7 weeks pregnant (3rd pregancy - 1 child).
I am having a terrible headache with light sensitivity, sensitivity to smell and movement.

If i am completely still and in a dark environment my headache is general ok. However everytime i take a step when walking or smell a strong scent or am in a bright environment it is EXTREMELY painful.

Have tried panadol.

Good day!
It is not a disease, It is a favour of nature to you. Women who have these perversions during first trimester give healthier baabies. The reason is that body gets superselective to the foreign substances like food etc to keep the very important phase of baby development anomaly free. Stop worrying. Keep monitoring your electrolytes. Use Garlic as much as you can. Black pepper snacks and orange juices with carbonated beverages will help. Its perfectly normal. will resolve after 12 weeks
Good Luck
