Can taking prenatal vitamins help reduce female ovary problems?

Question

I know some girls, who are not pregnant or trying to get pregnant, taking prenatal vitamins to help "regulate their period", "grow/strengthen their hair" or "reduce problems with their ovaries". I don't know all that is in prenatal vitamins but I'm curious to know does it really help? Is it worth taking or should I just take regular vitamins that aid my female problems? Does anyone else do this and it has worked for you?

Answer

Id suggest taking a daily supplement of Folic Acid. It is important in maintaining reproductive health in women of childbearing ages.

Answer

Maca is great for regulating hormones. People who say vitamins don't work is because they are uneducated on the subject.  If you do use a multi vitamin go with something "whole food based" that will be bioavailable for the body. They can get pricy for a true vitamin.

Answer

Its fine to take prenatal vitamins all the time.  They have extra iron and folic acid compared to regular multivitamins. Many of the vitamins and minerals are water soluble which means they get peed out and don't build up in your system. The fat soluble vitamins can build up but that's why you only take one a day. If your TTC it is recommended to take prenatal vitamins. If not, a regular multivitamin is fine. Just make sure it contains folic acid. I've never heard about prenatal vitamins helping to regulate cycles but they won't hurt you either

Answer

Answer

Answer

No I wouldn't take them. It's a very popular idea because they are stocked with nutrients, but they are meant to supply your body with enough nutrients to support another growing human being inside you. If you took them just to get shiny hair it would be like having an army size bunker of vitamins in your system. I think there might be some toxic effects too because if you took them consecutively your body wouldn't be able to handle the overload of vitamins.
