अगर मैंने अपनी गर्भावस्था के 7 हफ्तों के दौरान फोलिक एसिड लेना शुरू नहीं किया तो क्या होगा?

Client_724676

मैं 7 हफ्ते की प्रेग्नेंट हूँ लेकिन अभी तक फोलिक एसिड लेना शुरू नहीं किया है, क्या इससे मेरी प्रेग्नेंसी पर असर पड़ सकता है? क्या इससे कुछ और प्रभावित हो सकता है, मैं सच में चिंतित हूँ। मैंने इसे कैसे मिस कर दिया, कृपया सलाह दें।

Dr. Bharat Joshi
I’m a periodontist and academician with a strong clinical and teaching background. Over the last 4 years and 8 months, I’ve been actively involved in dental education, guiding students at multiple levels including dental hygienist, BDS, and MDS programs. Currently, I serve as a Reader at MMCDSR in Ambala, Haryana—a role that allows me to merge my academic passion with hands-on experience. Clinically, I’ve been practicing dentistry for the past 12 years. From routine procedures like scaling and root planing to more advanced cases involving grafts, biopsies, and implant surgeries. Honestly, I still find joy in doing a simple RCT when it’s needed. It’s not just about the procedure but making sure the patient feels comfortable and safe. Academically, I have 26 research publications to my credit. I’m on the editorial boards of the Archives of Dental Research and Journal of Dental Research and Oral Health, and I’ve spent a lot of time reviewing manuscripts—from case reports to meta-analyses and even book reviews. I was honored to receive the “Best Editor” award by Innovative Publications, and Athena Publications recognized me as an “excellent reviewer,” which honestly came as a bit of a surprise! In 2025, I had the opportunity to present a guest lecture in Italy on traumatic oral lesions. Sharing my work and learning from peers globally has been incredibly fulfilling. Outside academics and clinics, I’ve also worked in the pharmaceutical sector as a Drug Safety Associate for about 3 years, focusing on pharmacovigilance. That role really sharpened my attention to detail and deepened my understanding of drug interactions and adverse effects. My goal is to keep learning, and give every patient and student my absolute best.

Not starting folic acid early in pregnancy can raise some concerns, primarily because folic acid is crucial for the prevention of neural tube defects (NTDs) such as spina bifida. These defects affect the development of the fetal spine and brain and are most likely to occur in the first trimester, often before many women know they’re pregnant. That said, starting folic acid now can still be beneficial. The neural tube formation occurs roughly in the first 4-6 weeks, so while the critical window might have passed, some evidence suggests there’s still benefit to taking folic acid through the rest of the first trimester and even beyond. It’s a recommended part of prenatal care due to its role in the overall growth and development of the fetus. You should begin taking a prenatal vitamin that contains 400 to 800 micrograms (mcg) of folic acid immediately and continue throughout your pregnancy and even in the postpartum period if you plan on breastfeeding. These supplements are usually readily available at pharmacies and grocery stores. Beyond folic acid, ensure you’re adopting a healthy lifestyle— a balanced diet, regular physical activity as advised by your doctor, and avoiding alcohol and tobacco products can all contribute positively to your pregnancy. If you have any lingering concerns, especially regarding any potential risks or your personal medical history, it’s worth discussing this directly with your healthcare provider.
