Though toxicosis at pregnancy is also considered natural state, but pleasant in it it is not enough. It is desirable for pregnant women to know more about this state. Many women think that toxicosis is just vomiting, but do not know what can be considered as norm and that is beyond; what types of toxicosis happen, characteristic symptoms and the causes of this illness.
Types and symptoms of toxicosis at pregnancy
