Prenatal vitamins should not be chosen randomly or combined with several similar products without checking the composition. Femibion 1 is intended for pregnancy planning and the first trimester, while Femibion 2 is intended from week 13 of pregnancy until the end of breastfeeding. If vitamin D, iodine, iron, omega 3 or another prenatal complex is already being used, total daily intake should be checked.
