Anemia..

My doctor called and told me that I am slightly anemic, and needed to start taking iron supplements. I bought them but, I am afraid to take them because I heard that they can mess up your teeth? I'm not sure how exactly but, I'm nervous about taking them. Does anyone have some insight on this?

How long have you been taking them? anything different with your teeth?

Midwife told me prescription prentals are garbage and to take a gummy and floradix. It absorbs in the body much better and won't constipate you.

How anemic are you? My doctor recommended I eat things high in iron instead of taking supplements
