It would be ideal to take folic acid (4 - 8 mg) approximately 2 to 3 months before pregnancy. At the latest, however, with a positive pregnancy test. This should be done up to the 12th week of pregnancy. A multivitamin supplement is not necessary.
What is folic acid/vitamin B9 for?
Folic acid is essential for cell division and the formation of new cells.
Specifically, this means that vitamin B9 is essential for the development of organs such as the heart and the brain of the embryo or fetus.
1st Trimester
Fertilization does not have to coincide with sexual intercourse - it is quite possible that the sperm "survives" for up to 6 days.
From the gestational age of 6+2, a heartbeat can already be detected. If this is not the case, it could be because the pregnancy is younger despite the calculation = this is when ovulation has taken place later - or the pregnancy is not in order.
As soon as the heartbeat has been determined, you will receive your mother-child pass. This will guide you through the further preventive examinations by the health insurance company during your pregnancy and afterwards. This also serves as proof of your entitlement to social benefits from your social insurance company.
Cell-free fetal DNA Test from the maternal blood NIFTY™ test between 10+1 und 22+0 week of gestation
Find out more about the NIFTY test at https://nipt-geneplanet.com/at
The intake of folic acid should be started at least four weeks before pregnancy and continued up to twelve weeks after actual pregnancy start. More information
