A member asked:
Is biotin good to take when your pregnant and how many mcg to take?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Biotin in pregnancy: The amount of biotin that is in your prenatal vitamin is usually sufficient for your pregnancy. You should not need to take an extra biotin supplement. Talk with your obstetrician before adding any extra vitamins or herbal supplements other than your prescribed prenatal vitamin, as some supplements can even be harmful to you or your baby.
