  • Title: Hyperemesis gravidarum associated with thyrotoxicosis and a past history of an eating disorder.
    Author: Hiroi H, Kugu K, Hoshino H, Kozuma S, Taketani Y.
    Journal: Arch Gynecol Obstet; 2001 Nov; 265(4):228-30. PubMed ID: 11789755.
    Abstract:
    We present a case of severe hyperemesis gravidarum (HG) associated with thyrotoxicosis in a woman with a past history of an eating disorder. She had developed persistent HG from early pregnancy until about at the end of the second trimester with a body loss of 14 kg. Total parenteral nutrition was effective in alleviateing HG. It is suggested that even a past history of an eating disorder could be at risk of developing HG.
