Today is Hyperemesis Gravidarum (HG) Awareness Day, a powerful moment in HG Awareness Month to reflect on how far we’ve come and how far we still need to go.
HG is not just severe morning sickness. It is a serious, life-altering complication of pregnancy that can lead to malnutrition, dehydration, weight loss, and trauma. For far too long, HG has been misunderstood, minimized, or dismissed entirely. But that is changing—because of you.
In 2025, the HER Foundation’s theme is Progress. Every story shared, every patient supported, and every healthcare provider educated brings us one step closer to a world where HG is recognized, treated earlier, and approached with compassion and urgency.
We are making progress, but we cannot stop now.

Your voice matters. Your advocacy matters. Together, we are shining a light on HG—not just for awareness, but for action.
Join us this HG Awareness Day as we honor those who have suffered, support those still in the fight, and push for a future where HG no longer steals the joy from pregnancy.
