A member asked:
I have been taking a multivitamin, folic acid, dha, and coq10 in hopes of getting pregnant, as i am 37. could taking supplements delay my period?

No.: Supplements will not delay your period. It sounds like you are on a good prenatal regimen. Best wishes!

No: None of those supplements are known to delay periods and these are likely to both increase odds of getting pregnant and your baby being healthy. It is wise to take the active L-5MTHF form of folate as half of people have difficulty converting folic acid to that active form. Several herbs such as rhodiola can also improve fertility- see http://tinyurl.com/cfyjv63
