Hi. Congratulations on the pregnancy dear. The most important supplement to be taken in the first trimester is folic acid. You should follow the advise of your treating doctor, do not take a lot of medicines. Just follow your doctor’s advice, take a well balanced nutritious diet, avoid papaya and pineapple. Do not lift heavy weights and no relations with husband. Also, schedule a pregnancy ultrasound in consultation with your gynaecologist. All the best!

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..
