Is not eating folic acid during pregnancy harmful to the child?

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Did not taking folic acid during pregnancy affect the child?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, this is currently impossible to determine online whether it has an impact on the fetus. Folic acid is used to prevent neural tube defects in the fetus, not that if you don't take folic acid, the fetus will definitely have problems. If you are still pregnant now, I suggest you take a multivitamin. The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects a woman's body but can also lead to the occurrence of gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to go to the gynecology department of the hospital for a routine examination, identify the cause after diagnosis, and then treat accordingly. Pay attention to dietary regulation, eat light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
