Taking folic acid will not help you to conceive and it doesn't change your menstrual cycle. Folic acid is a vitamin, Vitamin B9, and is not a fertility drug. Please see this article for more information:
The best time to conceive is during the second and third weeks of the menstrual cycle. While a normal cycle is considered anywhere between 21 and 35 days, the average is about 28 days. Ovulation (the time when a woman is fertile) occurs mid month, this averages to around day 14 every month, give or take several days before and after.
