Hi Raj.. it should used throughout the pregnancy....
You may use Amway Iron folic tablet... which has iron in it also which is also necessary and the benefit is it does not have any side effects like constipations...
And better consult a gynecologist if you haven't.. as these all things should have been advised by a gynecologist but if you don't know then you might have avoided it till now which is not good..
