Would it be bad if I took prenatal pills?

No they are just vitamins. BUT it would be better for you to just take a healthy skin and hair vitamin, or a vitamin E. The best thing would be to buy bottles of vitamins E, etc, seperately and take all of them once a day. Hope I helped :)

No they're fine for you :) Although, I've been taking them for years...even before I got pregnant. I have to be honest, your nails and hair grow faster because of the pregnancy, not the prenatal vitamins :)

What does work excellent for my nails to grow well though is 'grow nails now' by Sally hansen- you can find it at CVS, or other drugstores. http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?...

Also, Nailtiques works really well. Biotin is also a great supplement..my friend who's a hairstylist recommended it to me.

Yes. If you're getting your advice from teenagers like you, I'm assuming, you're having problem growing nails, AND hair . . . . if you're healthy your nails & hair should be growing, unless they've been tampered with.

Prenatal vitamins don't make your hair grow. Pregnant women have to start taking care of their bodies when they're pregnant, meaning stop smoking, drinking, dyeing or perming their hair SO OF COURSE their hair start growing again. But it has nothing to do with their hair, it has something to do to help the development of their unborn child.

According to the fashion site, Mayo Clinic experts warn that too much iron can be problem if you are not expecting.

And Cairfair.com said: 'Too much iron over long periods of time can cause damage to vital organs like the heart and liver and can even lead to arthritis if the iron deposits settle in your joints.'

RE: Biotin - cauliflower, liver, salmon, carrots, bananas, cereals, yeast, and soy flour. Keep in mind that biotin content is reduced when food is cooked or preserved. One YA poster caused her to have major breakouts from supplements. Another poster said: "

i took biotin to grow my hair out, and it ended up falling out too!! it was worse around my bang area, like where you part it, there waas a huge patch of hair missing so i had to move my part for 5 months!"

Growing nails comes from: your good genes, good nail care, and all the healthy foods you eat everyday from Mother Nature.

Beauty products don't make nails grow. Eating does. Babies can do that just by drinking their milk. People giving advice on YA! should list their sources.

You really are what you eat. If you're eating all the healthy foods from Mother Nature - not made by man or woman or supplements from GNC, your hair, nails, teeth, and the rest of your body will benefit too. You get all your vitamins & minerals from your diet. Your hair's fine. You're health's fine, so are your nails. Man-by man vitamins can do more harm than good. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) doesn’t have to approve supplements — no agency in the United States does. Because of inadequate quality control and inspection, supplements contaminated with heavy metals, pesticides, or prescription drugs have been sold to unsuspecting consumers. And FDA rules covering manufacturing quality don’t apply to the companies that supply herbs, vitamins, and other raw ingredients.

Beginning in February 2008, they experienced one symptom after another: diarrhea, joint pain, HAIR LOSS, lung problems, and fingernails and toenails that fell off. FDA has received numerous reports of harm associated with the use of these products, including stroke, liver injury, kidney failure, heart palpitations, and death. 3-15-11

My Hubby, my SIL and their mom ALL have the same nails and break easily and hubby and I have eaten the same foods for over 39 years. Then it's from your genes.

Get a manicure to a good salon, or do them yourself. You can protect them by using one of those plastic gloves. I use gloves often: for chores, gardening, handling papers, going outside during winter, spring & fall, and kitchen, painting, crafting, etc. That way I don't have to wash my hands often.

They are just vitamins, anyone can take them. They are called "prenantal" to encourage women to take them before getting pregnant, but there isn't anything special about them.

So take them if you like, once day.

Daily n not harmful, they are vitamins basicly....
