I've been pregnant for 6 weeks now, and for the last 34 days, every time I eat, I end up vomiting. I've been taking the pregnidoxin medicine once a day, but it just doesn't seem to be working anymore. The vomiting starts just half an hour after eating. Could it be that I'm eating too much, or is there something else going on?
vomiting in pregnancy is normal

I've been diagnosed with a chocolate cyst in my left ovary and I'm not sure what surgery to go for should I just get the cyst removed or opt for a hysterectomy too? I'm worried about how this might affect me long-term and what the best option would be for my health
Cyst removal alone is usually sufficient for chocolate cysts. Hysterectomy is rarely necessary unless there are multiple complications or future fertility is not a concern.
