Abstract
Summary: In a prospective study of 2949 singleton pregnancies of whom one‐third were treated with folic acid, the maternal serum folate concentration was assayed at booking and at 30 weeks gestation. No association was found between a low serum folate level and abruptio placentae either in the index pregnancy or in previous pregnancies, and folic acid therapy did not reduce the incidence of abruptio placentae.Keywords
