Hello ma'am,
Yes you can, the important thing is folic acid supplementation at 0.4 mg to 1 mg per day in most women, ideally starting 3 months before trying to conceive. I would encourage you to ask your pharmacist/director to confirm this, some people require a higher dose depending on their health conditions or history.
Cordially,
Tom Samaha, pharmacist
