A member asked:

Iron iii hydroxide polymaltose complex + folic acid can help for me to get pregnant? this is what my doctor prescribed.

No: The iron helps improve a woman's anemia (increases her blood count) if she is anemic before, during, or after pregnancy. The Folic Acid helps prevent some birth defects, if she were to become pregnant. Neither the iron or folate (folic acid) help her become pregnant.
