Instructions for taking folic acid
1, folic acid supplementation started in the first three months of pregnancy.
In the first three months of pregnancy, neural tubes begin to develop and nerve cells begin to divide. At this time, if folic acid is lacking, neural tubes will be underdeveloped and deformed children will easily appear. If folic acid is supplemented at this critical time, the risk of fetal neural tube can be reduced by 50% ~ 70%. Therefore, women should start to supplement folic acid in the first three months of pregnancy; Take folic acid for another three months in the first trimester; Folic acid can be taken appropriately according to the situation in the third trimester.
2. Eat a small piece every day.
At present, there are two kinds of folic acid dosage forms on the market, one is a dosage form of 5 mg per tablet, and the other is a small dosage form of 0.4 mg per tablet. Pregnant women should take small dosage forms, one tablet a day is enough. Taking too much folic acid can not only prevent fetal malformation, but also cover up the symptoms of vitamin B 12 deficiency, interfere with zinc metabolism and cause zinc deficiency or nerve damage in pregnant women. If you don't get pregnant as scheduled after taking folic acid for three months, you should continue to supplement folic acid until you are pregnant for three months.
3. folic acid should not be supplemented with vitamin C.
Folic acid is easily destroyed in acidic environment and relatively stable in alkaline and neutral environment. However, vitamin C, vitamin B2 and vitamin B6 are relatively stable in acidic environment. If you take vitamin C, vitamin B2 and vitamin B6 while supplementing folic acid, the absorption rate will be affected by the conflict between their stable environments. In view of this, it is best to take it at least half an hour apart.

Lack of knowledge about pregnancy preparation
The frequency of sexual life will affect pregnancy.
This is an obvious problem. Too much or too little sexual life will affect pregnancy. The fast-paced life and daily work pressure in modern society, as well as many so-called weekend couples and long-distance couples, directly affect the frequency of sexual life, and the probability of female pregnancy is naturally greatly reduced; At the same time, too much sexual life will lead to poor sperm motility and affect pregnancy.
Generally speaking, young men and women usually have sex 3-4 times a week. Of course, it can't be generalized, and it can be used as a reference for pregnant couples.
