A member asked:
Hi, im 14 weeks pregnant and i feel like most foods are starting to smell like fish. is this normal and why does this happen?

You may be experiencing Dysgeusia caused by an increase in hormones. You have a distorted sense of taste and smell, everything tastes the same and seems noxious. Rising levels of estrogen and progesterone cause this feeling which is normal.
