I just realized I learned a new nugget of info that might be valuable for others. I was reading that people with genetic mutations on their MTHFR gene (holy cow, I am not a geneticist) are unable to process B vitamins and Folic Acid.
If you are taking or have taken prenatals, you know that Folic Acid is required to help baby develop successfully. But apparently it also might have something to do with healing/coping with an SCH. If you have the gene mutation, and cannot process the synthetic form of folic acid, then I read that it might help to try taking a prenatal with folate in the form of L-5-methyltetrahydrofolate. This natural form is able to be absorbed by your body, and can actually be processed.
I have ordered Thorne Research Basic OTC Prenatals and will start taking these and report back. I know it's unfounded theories and research, but I am willing to try anything that might help.
