To prevent vitamin B9 deficiency and to conceive normally, women are advised to start taking folic acid 3-6 months before conception. During this period, the daily intake of folic acid should be at least 0.8 mg. This will significantly reduce the likelihood of fetal developmental disorders.
Vitamin B9 is prescribed to all women planning a pregnancy. The use of folic acid should continue both during the period of conception and throughout the entire period of bearing a child.
After successful conception, vitamin intake continues.
