Asking For Self, Female, 25 Years old, Lahore
I hope you’re doing well. I wanted to ask if it’s okay to take folic acid 5mg for improving menstrual health. My periods come on time but the bleeding is not proper or consistent. I’ve already been checked for PCOS and that was ruled out Alhamdulillah. Can folic acid help in regulating or improving the quality of my periods? And if so, for how long should I take it?
Hi , folic acid has no role in improving menses ,
No its not. Folic acid can be used before or during pregnancy nancy. Its good for lung and body you can use for one to two months. For menses regulation you should use hormones therapy like combine therapy.
No folic acid is not helpful for menses regulation
