Hi,
Went to docs today to announce pregnancy and saw locum, he ended appointment saying
"Dr X (usual doc) disagrees, but I think you need 5mg Folic Acid a day, not 400ug to help embryo implant properly. And to take until week 20!?!!"
Has anyone else been told this? Thought high levels of Folic Acid had been linked to breast cancer. Seems a significantly higher dose and my usual doc not agreeing makes me fell like there must be disadvantages....MNetters please advise.
TIA
