Preconception Formula Capsules give you the full range of vitamins and minerals for the months before trying for a baby, with folate as methylfolate, choline, zinc, selenium, iron, vitamin D3 and K2. You take three capsules in the morning and two in the afternoon with food. One pot holds 150 capsules, which is a 30 day supply.
Eggs and sperm take about 90 days to develop, so the months before conception are when nutrient stores are built. This formula carries the folate, zinc and selenium that fertility and early pregnancy call for, in the active forms.
Preconception Formula Capsules are most useful for:
Once pregnant, Antenatal Formula Capsules carry the same nutrients at the levels used in pregnancy.
Five capsules provide 745mcg of folate as methylfolate, 95mcg of vitamin B12, 24mcg of vitamin D3, 14mg of iron, 14mg of zinc, 47mcg of selenium, 140mcg of iodine and 106mg of choline. With those come vitamins C, E and K2, the full B complex, calcium, magnesium, copper, manganese, chromium and molybdenum. Inositol, lutein, astaxanthin and zeaxanthin come alongside. The vitamin A is beta carotene. Every nutrient and its amount is on the label. Preconception vitamins and trying to conceive vitamins are other names for it.
Take three capsules in the morning and two in the afternoon, both with food. Food helps the iron absorb and keeps it easy on the stomach. Start at least three months before trying to conceive.
The capsules are suitable for vegetarians but not for vegans. They are free from gluten, dairy and nuts.
The capsules are made in the UK in a GMP certified cleanroom facility accredited to ISO 9001 and ISO 14001. Every batch is traceable from raw material to finished product. Like every supplement Nutri Tailor stocks, they are practitioner grade and guaranteed additive free.
Why methylfolate rather than folic acid?
Methylfolate is the form of folate your body uses directly, while folic acid has to be converted first and some people convert it poorly. The formula gives 745mcg a day.
How much should I take a day?
Take five capsules a day, three in the morning and two in the afternoon, which is the full amount on the label.
When should I start taking it?
At least three months before trying to conceive, because eggs and sperm take about 90 days to develop. Carry on through pregnancy unless your practitioner says otherwise.
Can I take it with other supplements?
Yes. It is often taken alongside Coenzyme Q10 Capsules, which is the pairing in the Optimal Fertility bundle. Check any separate iron or folate with your practitioner so the amounts do not add up too far.
Does it have side effects?
Taking it with food keeps the iron easy on the stomach and reduces any chance of nausea.
Is it suitable for my partner too?
No. The iron and the amounts are set for women, so a partner is better served by a men's multivitamin with zinc and selenium.

Preconception Formula provides nutrients that support reproductive health.
Ideally 3-4 months before trying to conceive.
Check the formulation for gender-specific support.
Folate, zinc, CoQ10, vitamin D, and omega-3s are foundational for both partners.

Tablets need binders, fillers and a coating to hold their shape. A capsule is a cellulose shell around the powder, so it carries no binders and breaks down quickly once swallowed.
