will folic acid help me to concieve?

Question

I have been told taht taking folic acid 400mcg a day will help increace me chances of falling pregnant.is this true?

Answer 1

This is very true. Folic acid, rasberry leaf tea, and believe it or not....ice cream, just not diet stuff will help you concieve. It is always best to nourish your body before baby comes along because having baby is hard on the body since their stingy little things and like to take all the nourishment away lol. So i would take a really good prenatal vitamin. They have more then just your regular multi, or yes, a folic acid pill will help you as well. Its true.

Answer 2

I don't think it increases your fertility, but it is extremely important during early pregnancy. That is why they tell you to take it when you are trying to conceive. It is the best way to avoid birth defects.

"The time of fetal development at which the neural tube should close is about 28 days. Again, most women don't even know they are pregnant at that time, so good nutrition is always important. Enough folate is required to fuel the explosion of new cells which occur with gestation, but folate isn't the only nutrient required in larger amounts. Also Vitamin's B6 and B12, the minerals Iron and Magnesium, and all the other major and trace minerals and other nutrients which are involved in normal cell division and replication. Including the amino acids, which are the structural building blocks for new tissue. If a woman's nutrition status isn't what it should be during the time these developments are taking place there is no second chance. Further damage can be prevented by supplying the proper diet and supplement changes, but you cannot undo the damage that has already been done. This is because certain developments can take place only at one certain time during gestation, and not later."


Here is an article that will explain.
