Folate levels

2024-06-25 09:23:57
I am taking folic acid 5 mg daily for last 6 weeks. Tested for folate levels and found that RBC folate is above 20 ng/ml. And folic acid is 1495 ng/ml. Both are higher than normal range. I have attached report. Should i be concerned about it? I am planning to conceive soon.
