"I wish to get pregnant soon and I would like to know if it is important and good to take folic acid?"

Yes, it is important to take folic acid when trying to conceive. Folic acid helps in the proper formation of the neural tube in the baby. It is recommended to start taking folic acid three months before attempting to conceive and continue taking it throughout pregnancy. Folic acid is also compatible with birth control pills.
