Hello,
I don't think that folic acid can cause nose bleeding and you safely take it. You may also need to take low dosage vitamin C. Also if you are taking any blood thinners it can cause the bleeding.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Wishing you all the best.
