What vitamins are you taking?

[Alora]

Hey ladies,

So I've been on HRT about a week now, YAY!!!!

At my Dr appointment I asked about what kind of vitamins I could add to my regiment. He suggested D3 (because I live in Seattle yay for grey skies lol) and a B-complex. I've also added Milk thistle and biotin.

I'm curious are any of you taking vitamins and if so what are y'all taking?

Unless there is a reason for deficiency (poor diet or lack of sun like you say) there is no reason to take vitamins. It's all in a well balanced diet

Ya, but most people don't eat a balanced diet.   

I take a daily multivitamin, biotin, fish oil, and chondroiton/glucosamine.

A little biotin and niacin. That's about it...

I wouldn't say most don't have a balanced diet, but I would say most people taking multivitamins don't need to unless they were told by a doctor 

Milk thistle for instance, just have an artichoke or put cilantro in a meal!

I take a multi vitamin (centrum), biotin, and fish oil.

I asked my doctor what I should take, she asked me what my eating habits were. I told her and she said I probably don't need any but if I feel the need then One-A-Day women's would be more than enough. My body will use what it needs and dump the rest. One-A-Day is not that expensive so I'm not wasting a bunch of money.

Can I ask WHY you are taking them if your doctor says you probably don't need it? It's a bit more harmful than that...
