A member asked:
What is the best prenatal vitamin? is it true that women who are pregnant or trying to conceive need two forms of folic acid?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Vitamin ?'s: Most prenatal vitamins recommended by an OB physician have sufficient amounts of folic acid and other essential vitamins. If contemplating pregnancy, ask your OB physician for a recommendation, and begin the vitamin supplements in advance of actual pregnancy.
