A member asked:
Wife started her second trimester. she is taking only 1 folicacid tab 5mg. is it enough? or shall we increase?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Only needs 1mg: Unless she was instructed by her doctor to take high dose Folic acid then 1 mg is more than enough. Folic acid main benefits are in the 3 months prior to pregnancy and in the early first trimester to prevent neural tube defects.
