Caution re: MSM: Biotin is perfectly safe & may help balance your blood sugars. I would be cautious about msm. Like most substances, its safety has not been studied during pregnancy. While not inherently toxic, msm helps our bodies to detoxify & it may be unwise to expose your baby to the toxins it stirs up. Best to err on the side of caution and avoid it for now.

Pregnancy: Do a home pregnancy test if you missed your periods, and stop all supplements. If tested positive , congratulations, make an appointment with your doctor , who will put you on prenatal viatamins.
