What extra Vitamins do you suggest?

Hi lovely ppl

So I have had the go ahead to start again with a frozen natural cycle. They have put me on a high dose of folic acid which means am taking that rather than my all in one pregacare conception tablet. This is fine but means I’m not getting all the extra other vitamins that come in the other so can anyone suggest any other supplements that you take for general health around conception especially. Trying to eat well generally but always good to have bit extra so just wondered what really beneficial.

TIA. Hope you all well xx

Hi Hollie I just was looking on those NHP fertility support tablets... quite expensive so if u don’t mind me to ask ...r they really help ?

In a past I was only taking other folic acid or pregnacare vitamins.xx

They are quite expensive but they do contain much more than your usual high street vitamins. They also make your urine go bright yellow so you know they have been absorbed xx

Hi Dreamingofbaby. You could still use an ordinary multivitamin tablet and Vitamin D. Good luck! Diane

Hi Diane thank u for this. Can I still take the pregnacare before conception multi vitamin as it has 400ug of folic acid in? Would that be too much with my 5mg of folic acid or ok. Just be good to have the other vitamins that are in there🤔 thank u. Am all sorts of confused ☺️

Hi. Yes, that would be fine, but don’t forget to keep your fruit and veg up too. Diane
