A member asked:
I have been taking iron pills when i am on my period and i was wondering if i can take them twice a day or is that a bad idea to do. or just take one.

Be careful: You should take iron if you are deficient in the nutrient. If you take it when you do not need it you could get too much in your body and that could damage you. See you doctor.
