Frequently asked questions
What does Pregnacare Conception do?
Pregnacare Conception provides nutrients for women preparing for pregnancy. Under the EU/UK Register of Health Claims, the zinc it contains contributes to normal fertility and reproduction, folic acid contributes to maternal tissue growth during pregnancy, and vitamin B12 contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism.
When should I start taking it?
You can begin Pregnacare Conception as soon as you start trying for a baby, and it can also be taken up to three months beforehand to build your nutritional stores ahead of conception.
Why is folic acid recommended before pregnancy?
The UK Department of Health recommends 400µg of folic acid a day for women trying to conceive and in early pregnancy, because of folate's recognised role in early development. Pregnacare Conception provides this 400µg level.
What are inositol and L-arginine for?
Inositol and L-arginine are included as ingredients within the formula. No specific authorised health claim is made for them; the authorised claims on this product relate to its vitamins and minerals.
