Hi Dr. XXXXXXX
Thank you very much for your reply.
I have read on the internet that that tablet should be given to women who had the frequent abortion, however, this happened to my only once and during the 7 weeks I was not taking the folic acid that times, I think this could be the reason.
am I right? is it fine if I did not take them? as the side effect of it cause me problems

Tablet has advantage
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
These tablets do have advantage and won't harm pregnancy. Especially when you had an abortion I don't think you should waste your time and start taking ecosprin as this won't harm pregnancy.
