Is It Okay To Start Folic Acid Tablets Post Intercourse?
Hi. My name is Louela. I am 39 years old and already have a 11 year old son. My last mestrual period is July 17 to 20. My husband and i haven t been sex for a long time due to busy schedule. Just last night, we tried to do it and i think i might get pregnant. My question is, would it be okay to start after we had intercourse to take folic acid? My obgyn told me before to take folic acid 3 months pre-natal.
