My gynac has given me iron and calcium tablets together and i keep wondering if taking both is fine. Sometimes i feel thoda uneasy after. Does it affect anything? just curious how others manage these.
These supplements are essential, but you should never take them together because calcium stops your body from absorbing iron properly. I also ate beetroot and milk at different times for natural absorption. If you ever feel severe stomach pain or nausea, please ask your doctor immediately.
Having PCOS taught me to always check how supplements interact. Yes, iron and calcium are necessary, but taking them together reduces their effectiveness. Always take them at least 3-4 hours apart, and let your doctor guide your dosage.
Both are vital for your bones and baby's growth. My mother advised me to take iron with a glass of orange juice for better absorption, but my doctor confirmed that we must never take iron and calcium together. Always trust what your doctor advises.
Daily prayers and proper nutrition are so important, and taking iron and calcium is very vital for the baby’s healthy development. Just remember to keep a gap between them, maybe take iron in the morning and calcium in the evening, with a pure and positive mind. God will keep you and the baby safe!
Beta, iron and calcium tablets are very good for you and the baby. Just don't eat them at the same time, otherwise they won't work well. Take one in the morning after breakfast and the other after dinner.
I used to worry so much about whether these pills were harming my baby or making me sick! Please don't worry, they are completely safe and necessary. Just take them with a few hours of gap so they absorb well and don't cause any acidity.
Never take them together because calcium blocks iron absorption, making it a waste of time. Take calcium with milk at night and iron with water in the afternoon. Keep them separate and you’ll see a major difference in your blood reports.
My saas always reminded me to take my iron tablet in the afternoon and calcium at night. She said taking them together is useless because they fight with each other inside! It actually worked out great for my energy levels.
