No.: Prenatal vitamins (PNV) do not cause joint or breast pain. If you are pregnant, these symptoms may be related to pregnancy. Use range of motion exercise to keep limber, drink plenty of fluids, and use a support bra. Keep taking your PNVs and see the checklist on having a healthy pregnancy. Take care!

No: These symptoms that are commonly associated with pregnancy are not caused by vitamins (which are required by the body, always present in the body, and are in all foods).
