Gestifol- DHA
(L-methyl folate + Methylcobalamin + Pyridoxal-5-phosphate + DHA)
A neurotropic and nutritional supplement commonly prescribed in gynecology and obstetrics, especially during preconception, pregnancy, and women’s health management.
🌸 Gynecological & Obstetric Applications
1. Preconception & Pregnancy Support
-
Provides active folate (L-methyl folate) that bypasses MTHFR mutations.
-
Essential for DNA synthesis, neural tube formation, and prevention of congenital anomalies.
-
DHA supports fetal brain and retinal development.
2. Recurrent Pregnancy Loss (RPL)
-
Corrects hyperhomocysteinemia linked to folate/B12 deficiency.
-
Improves implantation success and placental circulation.
3. Infertility & Assisted Reproduction (IVF/IUI)
-
Enhances endometrial receptivity by reducing oxidative stress.
-
Supports oocyte quality and embryo development.
4. Pregnancy Complications
-
Reduces risk of pre-eclampsia, IUGR, and gestational diabetes.
5. General Women’s Health
-
Corrects nutritional deficiencies in women with PCOS, poor diet, or long-term OCP use.
-
Relieves fatigue, neuropathy, and mood swings associated with B-vitamin deficiency.
Mechanism of Benefits
-
L-methyl folate → Active folate for DNA synthesis & homocysteine regulation.
-
Methylcobalamin (B12) → Protects nerves, prevents anemia, supports fetal neural growth.
-
Pyridoxal-5-phosphate (B6) → Aids neurotransmitter synthesis, reduces pregnancy-related nausea.
-
DHA (Omega-3 fatty acid) → Supports fetal brain, eye, and cognitive development, and improves maternal mental health.
