    I'm going to start trying for a baby at the end of September. Currently im taking folic acid 400mcg & sona multi plus multivitamin.
    On the multivitamin one of the ingredients is folic acid hg[the h looks like its upside down].
    So is this too much folic acid?
    Also is there anything else I should be taking?
    Already had a miscarriage over a year ago, no explanation given by my gp, it was just one of those things.
    Any advice is appreciated!

    Talk with your GP

    But in general folic acid is just vitamin B and you can't really get too much.

    if you live a relatively healthy lifestyle with a balanced diet should be fine.

    but best to confirm with the GP as they can do things like blood test that will check for low levels of B12 etc etc
