New here and question

I just wanted to say hello to you all. I'm new to LIF. I used to post on LIW when I was planning my wedding. I'm remaining anonymous for now because I haven't told any of my friends and family (and who knows who lurks) that we're about to start trying. I went off BC early May and just got AF on CD 49. I'm hoping my cycles will regulate after BC this summer because we'd like to officially start TTC in the fall.

Question: I've been taking one a day women's health vitamins and fish oil pill for about two years now. I recently added another 400 mg of folate for a total of 800. Do you think I still need to switch over to prenatals or am I covered with this combination?

TIA

Welcome! and Good Luck!

To answer you question my gyn just told me to take a multi vitamin. Which is 500mgs. Also, I believe you should be getting additional folic acid from what is in the multi vitamin from you regular diet. (if that makes sense)

Re: New here and question

Thanks!

Yeah, I imagine I'm getting some extra stuff through diet. I like to think I eat pretty balanced. I've always eaten Barilla Plus, so that's a plus (no pun, intended), lol.
