With my PCOS history, my doctor was very specific about prenatal vitamins. She put me on a daily folic acid supplement right from when we started trying. Always check with your doctor to get the right dosage for your body.
Usually, doctors recommend 400 mcg of folic acid daily, especially in the first trimester. However, please don't start any dosage on your own; let your gynac write the exact brand and strength for you.
I took folic acid daily throughout my pregnancy as prescribed by my doctor. It really helps prevent birth defects, so it's a must. Just ask your gynac during your routine checkup and they will give you the right pill.
Folic acid is so incredibly important for our little babies' development, I never missed a single day! My gynac prescribed a standard 400 mcg tablet daily, and taking it always made me feel like I was doing the best for my little one.
Actually, 400 mcg is the usual standard, but honestly, don't just buy over-the-counter tablets, yaar. Just ask your gynac in your next visit and they will prescribe the exact one you need.
