How much folic acid for how long prevents neural tube defects in babies?

There is no guarantee that folic acid supplementation will prevent neural tube defects, though it has been proven to reduce the risk. In a woman who has no family history of neural tube defects, it is suggested that she take 0.4 mg of folic acid each day, while a woman with a family history is asked to take 4 mg of folic acid each day (10 times the amount). Ideally the women would begin taking folic acid at least 3 months before conception, and continue it through at least the end of the first trimester.
