    Folic Acid - When to reduce the dose?

    Hi

    I'll be 6 weeks pregnant next week. I've been taking a higher dose of folic acid since being on LE diet, following Atomics advice for older mums! Dose is 2400mg. Since my bfp I've also added in a pre natal with another 400mg of folic acid.

    What I would like to know is, should I decrease the dose? By how much and when?

    Thanks for your help.
