Centrum for women has vitamin A, is this safe?
Hi Atomic,
Centrum for women has vitamin A. I had heard from other doctors that vitamin A is not recommended for women TTC or pregnant women, but I recommended it anyway for my friend since you had already approved it for me when I was still ttc, so how can I explain to her that it is safe for her boy sway and for her pregnancy in general?

Also I have been taking it still, I’m about 7 weeks pregnant. Should I stop it? Is it safe for me to carry on with it? I’m panicking over this information and I would love a reassurance from you that Centrum hasn’t harmed my baby

It's by far less than the dangerous amount (here's a good article https://natural-fertility-prescripti...and-pregnancy/) plus some of it is in the form of Beta Carotene which is ok during pregnancy. I do prefer the Women's One a Day which has less, but many prenatal vitamins have MORE (including the ubiquitous Pregnacare) not to mention megadoses of many other things that have very little safety info about them, and many people in the UK can't find the One a Day without a lot of effort.
I would not have you guys use something that I thought could be harmful.

The dangerous amount of Vitamin A is many many times more than that.

Atomic, this may sound crazy but I’ve been reading about moon phases… I have a ‘red moon cycle’ currently which I didn’t used to have. Meaning my period is coinciding with the full moon. From...
