Canadian online pharmacies offer a wealth of different medications for many conditions, from type 2 diabetes to high blood pressure. Expectant mothers may also benefit from acquiring cheap medication from Canada if they suffer from early morning sickness, clinically known as hyperemesis gravidarum (HG), which can sometimes lead to hospitalization and pregnancy termination.
According to researchers at UCLA and the University of Southern California, children whose mothers had experienced HG while carrying time had 3.6 times the chance of suffering from anxiety, depression or bipolar disorders, compared to the offspring of women who had not had morning sickness.
Lead author Marlena Fejzo and her colleagues published their findings in the Journal of Developmental Origins of Health and Disease.
"Even though HG can be a form of starvation and dehydration in pregnancy, no studies prior to this have been done to determine the long-term effects it has on the exposed unborn child," Fejzo said. "In this study, adults exposed to HG in utero are significantly more likely to have a psychological and/or behavioral disorder than non-exposed adults."
