From what I've read, it helps with conception (that doesn't necessarily mean in "no time;" I've known plenty of people in fertility treatment that have taken folic acid for years), and helps prevent miscarriage. However, its main purpose is to prevent neural tube & heart defects. Also, when TTC, they recommend 800 mg, which is why they tell you to start prenatal vitamins several mos before you even start trying.

I took 6g while ttc and it still took me 18 months with zero fertility issues for me or hub. FA will help as far as making u healthy and stock piling the nutrients u need to ensure the health of ur fetus, but its not a guarantied get pregnant quick kind of thing. Def take it tho, it can only help!!
Good luck! =))

I agree with eag923!
800mg is the recommended amount which can be found in most prenatal vitamins. I asked my RE when we first started ttc and she looked over what I was taking and said to just stick with the 800mg and not take anymore than that which was in my prenatal vitamin. Good luck!
