Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
If you are planning for pregnancy then you should definitely start taking vitamin C, iron, folic acid and vitamin B12. Recommended doses are as follow:
1. Vitamin C once a day
2. Folic acid
3. Vitamin B12
4. Iron preparation
No harm in taking these supplements. Start before conception and continue 6 months after delivery.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
