Coming off the pill

I’m due to get married in October this year. I’m 29, me & my partner would like to start trying for a baby after our wedding. I was thinking of coming the pill in August, to give my body time to get back to a normal cycle.
Is it also true for me to start taking folic acid up to 3 months before we start trying?
Thanks

Everyone is different but sometimes it can take a while for your body to get back to normal after the pill. But definitely start taking supplements at least 3 months before to help with the transition and you'll be good. What pill are you on out of curiosity?

Yes take folic acid
