A member asked:
Is there any harm in taking 2 prenatal vitamins a day before conception to get extra folic acid.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No : there is no harm in taking two pills but don't take it too long if you are not going to get pregnant as it has iron and you dont want to take iron indefinitely as it accumulates in body if you don't need it
