ABSTRACT

Objectives: To estimate the prevalence of general supplements with iron (He) and folic acid (FA) in pregnant Mexican women, as well as the duration and amount of supplements before and during pregnancy; evaluate the changes in the consumption of supplements in those stages. Methods: Descriptive study in 276 women attended in the first level of care of the Mexican Institute of Social Security, with normal pregnancy ‹16 weeks, incorporated until 2006-2007, with non-probabilistic sampling. Sociodemographic, reproductive characteristics, consumption of dietary micronutrients, the type, content and duration of supplement consumption were documented in the previous year, first and second trimesters of pregnancy. We compared the duration and -- amount of supplementation at each stage, with Friedman's statistical test. Results: The prevalences of general pre-gestational supplementation, AF and I were 26.4%, 15% and 8%; in the first quarter, the three prevalences were 76%; during the second quarter, 99%. The median number of days of pre-gestational supplementation was 90[IR=60,120] for I and 60[IR=30,90] for AF; in the first trimester, , 33[IR=18.5,43] and 35[IR=25,49] days; in the second, 86[IR=66,96] and 88[IR=74,97], respectively (p ‹0.0001). The respective daily amount of these micronutrients was: pre-gestational, 8.7[IR=4.9,19.8] mg and 123.3[IR=41.1,821.9] mcg; first quarter, 24.0[IR=14.3,39.4] mg and 1734.7[IR=969.4,2755.1] mcg; second quarter: 60.3[IR=48.6,98.2] mg and 4438.8[IR=3289.8, 4949.0] mcg (p ‹0.0001). Conclusions: prevalence and quantity of supplementation with I, FA, and general was unfavorable, before and during the pregnancy in Mexican women.
