“Does taking prenatal vitamins help prevent miscarriage?”

Prenatal vitamins are important because they give you folic acid that helps prevent open neural tube defects. Prevention of miscarriage can be accomplished by early visits to your OBGYN to rule out diseases such as diabetes, thyroid disease, or others which can affect miscarriage. If you have had prior losses it is very important to get testing and see your OBGYN.

Lastly, stay away from tobacco and alcohol which have been shown to cause miscarriage.
