Guest guest Posted March 19, 2004 Report Share Posted March 19, 2004 I know their are always posts regarding Folic Acid, and I read them when I see them. I have a question...how much Folic Acid is everyone taking? Everyone meaning those of you trying to get pregnant and those of you that are pregnant. I have moved half-way around the world to the United Arab Emirates, a middle eastern country, so don't have my surgeon or my established OB/GYN handy. I am not sure if there are even any physicians here that do bariatric surgeries. I expect I will have to educate my new OB/GYN once I get established. I plan to try to concieve starting in April. My chewable vitamins that I take daily have 400mcg of Folic Acid, and I take 2 each day. I also have a Folic Acid supplement that is 400mcg each. I am currently taking the 2 chewable vitamins and 1 Folic Acid tab for a total of 1200mcg a day. Any comments or suggestions? I am curious as to how much your OB/GYN's and surgeons are recommending. Thanks! Donna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
