Hi there,
I started taking FA a couple of weeks ago, and ever since have been experiencing the need to wee alot! There has not been any pain or discomfort. Has anyone else had this..... or is it actually nothing to do with the Folic Acid? Maybe I need to go to the DR? Welcome your comments! :-) |

I don't see how it would make you urinate more frequently as its just a B vitamin? Perhaps a trip to the dr may be the way to go?? ------------- |

| Hi, I am recently on an extra amount of folic acid, 5mgs, and I now wee a lot, BUT I put that down the Elevit I am taking alongside it. I figure I am wee'ing out what my body doesn't need! |

| I've been on 5mg of folic acid for 11 months now and it makes no difference with peeing |

It shouldnt make you pass more urine but you do excrete what you dont need in your urine iykwim? Maybe you have a UTI or something, or maybe its a coincidence.... ------------- My Beautiful Little Emily http://lilypie.com">
