How long to take folic acid after pregnancy?

Patient's question:

I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. How long should I take folic acid after getting pregnant?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, Folic acid is used to prevent neural tube defects in the fetus. It is sufficient to take it for three months before pregnancy and three months after pregnancy. There is no need to take too much. You can take some calcium when you are about five or six months pregnant.
Hello, if you have had pregnancy before, sexual activity will not lead to pregnancy again, so it will not affect the fetus in your body. However, you need to pay attention to preventing infection and the possibility of inducing miscarriage. It is recommended to have regular check-ups during pregnancy.
