is 5mg too much? or good to consume?

if its given by clinics those small little yellowish pills, if not mistaken 1 a day... unless advice otherwise by doctor

but you should consult a doctor not in a public forum

Go consult a doctor.

It is in the guideline in every country.

vital for baby neural development..

my wife also take it daily during the pregnancy.. prescribed by doctor..

but if unsure, please consult ur doctor..

Over the internet medical websites, the recommended dosage is 400mcg aday and not more than 1000mcg or will cause autism. So i let my wifey take Blackmore supplement of 200mcg x2 times aday. But when we told our doctor/s they seemed surprised that the folic acid dossage my wifey took is only 400mcg and issued a 5000mcg (5mg) daily.

Take it when you have decided to conceive.

Folic acid is a must as per my wife last pregnancy. Even pre pregnancy.

yes, folic acid should be taken during the whole pregnancy
usually doctor will give together with multi vitamin

you can also eat banana to boost folic acid

Folic acid is a must

Folic acid is important. Consult doctor on the dosage.

i took blackmore folic 90's together with my partner, some say the normal cheap cheap folic acid will do too

i took it when i plan to get pregnant

3 months before planning？

some says 3 months before pregnancy

Take daily obimin, that's what my wife is taking

need iron too for blood supply to baby

Klinik bagi 5mg, hovid brand also 5mg
No harm..usually other brand 400mcg je, take once daily, started 3 months earlier when u want to conceive and continue taking it..

Kalau cell telur kau kurang memberangsangkan, tambah zinc, vit D. Paling senang ambil surbex zinc b plus + D calcium.

Dah preggo ambil pregnancy multivit and eat real food, exercise regularly.

Folic acid is compulsory during pregnancy.

Its cheap too.

True that
