A member asked:
Is it ok if i take folic acid from a year ahead until trying to conceive?

It is fine to take folic acid at 400 microgram a day a year before you try to conceive. It will help with the development of the nervous system and prevent and spine and neural tube defect.

Yes. Folic acid supplement is recommended when trying for pregnancy. It would be prudent to establish contact with an obstetrician for additional advice and antenatal care. Wish you good health!
