Yes, starting folic acid is highly recommended. Taking 400 micrograms of folic acid daily before conception and during early pregnancy helps prevent birth defects of the baby's brain and spine. Regarding Becosules, while B-complex vitamins are generally safe, it is best to consult your doctor. They will likely recommend transitioning from Becosules to a dedicated prenatal multivitamin that contains the exact balance of folic acid and other essential nutrients needed for a healthy pregnancy.
