Product Details

The most complete, clinically studied Prenatal Multivitamin Pro in capsule form including 26 nutrients in optimal forms and dosages that mothers and babies need.*

We formulated our Prenatal Multivitamin Pro in collaboration with perinatal practitioners, using data from testing thousands of women’s nutrient levels to help you thrive, not just survive.

Take it before, during, after pregnancy— and even beyond.
Clinical Study

*Our IRB approved clinical study examined 235 pregnant women living across the US, and compared blood levels of nutrients by the type of prenatal they were taking. Women taking the Needed Prenatal Multivitamin Pro had significantly higher blood levels of key nutrients for pregnancy including Vitamin D, Vitamin B6, Riboflavin, Vitamin B12, Vitamin K2, and Selenium, compared to the women taking the standard prenatal.

Our results indicate that the Standard Prenatal group had a significantly higher percentage of women falling below sufficient ranges for blood levels of Vitamin D, Vitamin B6, Selenium, and Zinc, compared to women taking the Needed Prenatal Multivitamin Pro. This study contributes to the growing body of evidence to suggest that the standard prenatal vitamin is not cutting it.

Complete nutrition that doesn't compromise

We've included all the essential vitamins, minerals, and botanicals your body needs for comprehensive nourishment. Unlike typical 1- or 2-a-day prenatals, our formula has room for the bulky nutrients that matter most—at dosages that actually make a difference.

Each serving delivers 200mcg of active B12 to support optimal levels, 400mg of Choline, 4,000 IUs of Vitamin D3 (2-4x more than most prenatals), 918mcg DFE of methylated Folate, plus minerals bound to Glycine for superior absorption and digestive comfort*.

What we leave out matters, too

Every ingredient is vetted by perinatal experts. We've excluded poor nutrient forms like Folic Acid, unsustainably-sourced ingredients such as Vegan D3, formulations with high heavy metal loads, and nutrients like Omega-3 and Iron that are better taken separately.

Our Prenatal Multis include methylfolate as Optifolin+®, a bioavailable, fully bioactive folate form. This unique folate form delivers superior biological benefits that support critical processes like your baby's brain development—advantages other methylfolate forms simply can't provide.

Citrus Prenatal Multivitamin Pro note: Each bottle includes an EU Food compliant citrus sachet made with natural citrus essential oils (no artificial colors or fragrance) to enhance scent and taste without adding ingredients to the vitamins themselves.
How to Use

When to take: With food, ideally in the morning or around lunchtime for optimal energy throughout the day

Flexible dosing: Split your serving between meals if preferred

Starting out: If switching from a less nutrient-dense prenatal, begin with 2 capsules daily and work up to 8 capsules

Storage: Keep sealed at room temperature

Questions? We have answers.

Thoughtful inquiry is needed.

What makes Needed's Prenatal Multi different from others?

We work directly with practitioners who regularly test women's nutrient levels before, during, and after pregnancy to know what's truly needed. Together, we have selected nutrient forms of 26 vitamins, minerals, and botanicals that work best in the body, and dosages intended to help you thrive, not just survive. Most prenatals are designed to meet bare minimum needs, and often contain inadequate nutrient amounts and tough-to-absorb forms.
When should I start taking the Prenatal Multi?

Take it before, during, after pregnancy — and even beyond — for the nourishment you need to feel your best and avoid depletion, and to give your baby everything their body needs to thrive from the very start. We like to stress the importance of preconception nutritional preparation and postpartum recovery, so this product is for you even if you are a few years away from having kids or a few years postpartum.
Why do the amounts of some of the nutrients in Prenatal Multi exceed the percent Daily Value?

We designed our Prenatal Multi to help you thrive, not just survive. Daily Values are set off of the Recommended Dietary Allowances (RDAs) which most often do not offer enough nutritional value for pregnant and nursing women. Read our journal article on the topic to learn more.
Is your Prenatal Multi vegan, allergen free, and Non-GMO?

Our Prenatal Multi is vegetarian and non-GMO. Free of eggs, fish, milk, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nut allergens, wheat, and gluten.
Everything makes me nauseous while I am pregnant, will your product work for me?

Many pregnant mothers find it helpful to take smaller doses throughout the day with meals (i.e. 3 with breakfast, 3 with lunch, 2 with dinner). Our pared down Prenatal Multi Essentials is a great option for those who prefer fewer capsules. If you need more information, please download our Getting Started Guide.
Is this Prenatal Clinically Studied?

Yes. In our Prenatal Nutrient Status Study, an IRB-approved observational cross-sectional clinical research study, we compared blood levels of nutrients among 235 pregnant women living across the US, by the type of prenatal vitamin they were taking. Women taking the Needed Multi Prenatal had significantly higher blood levels of key nutrients for pregnancy including Vitamin D, Vitamin B6, Riboflavin, Vitamin B12, Vitamin K2, and Selenium, compared to the women taking the standard prenatal.
Do Needed Prenatal Vitamins contain Methylated Folate?

Yes. Needed’s Prenatal Vitamins contain include Optifolin+®, a bioavailable, fully bioactive methylfolate (L-5-MTHF) enriched with choline providing superior benefits for healthy methylation, setting it apart from other forms of methylfolate. Other forms of methylfolate utilize salts, such as calcium or glucosamine salts, which need to be present to support the stability of methylfolate but do not enable this nutritionally synergistic benefit.

Methylated folate and folic acid are two different forms of folate. 5-MTHF is the active form that the body can directly use, while folic acid is a synthetic form that must be converted before it becomes active. We choose methylated folate because it is the form naturally used by the body and is a well-studied, bioavailable source that supports healthy folate status.

Adequate folate intake supports maternal health by supporting normal cell division and the formation of red blood cells, which are essential for energy production and oxygen delivery during pregnancy.* Folate also plays a critical role in fetal development by supporting neural tube formation and healthy cellular growth and function.* Learn more about why we choose methylated folate here.

    Will purchase for years to come

    I started taking 6 months preconception as I was preparing my body. I did continue to take through postpartum and I experienced no hair loss. Now currently pregnant with my second and feel like I am getting all the nutrients I need, even on days when all I feel like eating is a potato. Love these prenatals.

    10/10 would recommend!!!

    I found these from the Healthy as a Mother podcast. I had been struggling deciding between all the popular prenatals but was sold on these from learning what Dr. Leah and Dr. Morgan said about them. I am not yet pregnant, but hoping to be soon. But these have already made my nails hair and skin healthier!

    the best

    I love these prenatals. They are so easy to take and there is no smell or taste to the pills at all. The price is affordable especially on subscription, and I feel like these are truly the best prenatal I could be taking to help my baby grow! I will continue taking them postpartum as well.
