Taking vitamin b plus folic acid and iron can easily to conceive? thank you

No but important: As far as i know vitamin b6 will not help you conceive but taking Folic Acid and iron is very important. Folic acid supplements reduces the risk of birth defects in half and spina bifida (open spinal cord in the baby) by two thirds. Iron is important for the production of red blood cells in pregnancy. These and other important vitamins are found in an otc or prescription prenatal vitamin.
