Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy is a liver disorder that occurs in pregnant women. Cholestasis is a condition that impairs the release of a digestive fluid called bile from liver cells. As a result, bile builds up in the liver, impairing liver function. Because the problems with bile release occur within the liver (intrahepatic), the condition is described as intrahepatic cholestasis. Intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy usually becomes apparent in the third trimester of pregnancy.
However, when youâre pregnant, it can be even easier for you to become dehydrated and miss the symptoms altogether. Dehydration is more common in pregnancy. For one thing, your blood volume when you become pregnant drastically increases to provide your baby with nutrients. When blood volume is high, itâs more difficult for your body to retain fluids, so you become dehydrated quicker. You are also at a higher risk for dehydration during your pregnancy because you have a greater tendency for nausea and vomiting.
