Brief Answer:
YES, FOLIC ACID SUPPLEMENT REQUIRED.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing to us.

1) In general, you should take folic acid and multivitamin supplements for atleast 3 months before and after conception.

2) You can try to get pregnant during your fertile period (D 12 to D 18) if your menstrual cycle is regular. No other medicines are required without investigation.

Hope, I have answered your query. Good luck.

Regards,
DR S PATRA
