What nutrients do pregnant women need to supplement?

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? What should pregnant women supplement?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the first thing a pregnant woman needs to do is maintain a balanced diet. It's perfectly fine not to be overly picky about food, but two issues are common. First, it's easy to develop anemia, and you can take appropriate iron supplements based on your check-up results. Second, it's common to experience calcium deficiency, so you need to supplement it accordingly.
You will need to undergo medical examinations such as a 4D ultrasound and amniocentesis to monitor the baby's development. It's important to strengthen nutrition and avoid picky eating. Drink bone broth more often. Avoid spicy, alcoholic, and other stimulating foods.
