Dear Patient,
Did you take your fefolvit and calcium medicines throughout pregnancy and for 6 months postpartum? Are you breastfeeding your child and have breastfed others?
With time, we only increase in age and our body weakens. We need to continue taking a multivitamin like (one a day tablet once daily or any other you like) and during and after pregnancy we must take tablet revitale (or any including B12) once/day and CaC1000 daily. If you are breastfeeding you should continue this till you stop breastfeeding as all your nutrients are going to your child leaving you weak.
For further help, we recommend checking with one of the
best neurologists in Lahore and seek a piece of in-person advice at https://oladoc.com/pakistan/lahore/neurologist
