2nd Trimester Regimen

We use Methylfolate, the active form of folic acid, which is clinically proven to increase serum folate levels.

Since folate is crucial for early pregnancy, it was important to our medical panel to include the most bioavailable form of folate possible—in the form of Methylfolate in our prenatal vitamin formulas. "Folic acid is less expensive, [which] leads to the terms folate and folic acid being interchangeable," says Dr. Amber Samuel, a maternal-fetal medicine doctor and Perelel Panel member. "We know that while everyone has to convert folic acid for it to be useful, [it's] an added step, decreasing bioavailability. And some women cannot due to MTHFR mutations."

Perelel is the first and only prenatal vitamin brand co-founded by an OB/GYN.

Our bodies and baby's needs change so much during pregnancy. Unlike most one-size-fits-all prenatal vitamins, our Trimester Packs were specifically designed to change with you—delivering targeted nutrition and symptoms relief when you need it most.

Our products run on a monthly subscription to make sure you never run out of your vitamins. Your subscription will automatically update alongside your due date so you receive the right pack for your trimester and into postpartum.

We account for shipping time and will automatically move you into the next trimester pack as you start to approach it. You will receive an email 5 days prior to any shipment just in case you need to make any adjustments (such as changing packs or moving back a shipment).

We follow the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists™ (ACOG) defined trimesters:

• 1st Trimester: Week 0 through Week 13
• 2nd Trimester: Week 14 through Week 27
• 3rd Trimester: Week 28 through Week 40+

Always feel free to contact us at [email protected] if you have any specific questions or want to make any changes.

Both internal and external hydration matter—but ultimately, we we eat and consume is what makes up the building blocks of our skin!

Most women don’t get enough choline from diet alone and it is essential for brain, liver, and cellular function and health. The recommended amount of choline for pregnant women is 450 mg and breastfeeding is 550 mg per day. Our daily packs provide enough choline to meet that requirement alongside a healthy diet, but some women may need or want an additional boost or to help close the gap. All women can benefit from meeting the daily recommended intake of choline to support cognition and cellular health at every stage of life (especially perimenopause and beyond when decreased estrogen levels mean that the body is less efficient at naturally producing acetylcholine, which choline is needed for and can contribute to brain fog).

Yes! Choline is an essential nutrient that is required for neurotransmitter synthesis, contributes to cell membrane structure, is involved in methylation functions, and supportive of liver health. It is beneficial to all women, especially as most don’t get enough choline from their diet.
