A member asked:
For twin pregnancy, how much iron do i need. my prenatal has 9 mg, do i need additional iron? is it safe to take extra 25 mg as ferrous fumarate?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Anemia: Ask your doctor if you have been checked for anemia. If you are anemic they can give you the extra iron that you need. If you are not anemic then extra iron is not needed.
