Great for regulating period!!!!!!!
Let me start by saying that I’ve NEVER had a normal cycle…I first started taking BC in high school because I’d only have a period every 3-4 months and it would be super heavy and painful. The BC worked for a while, then in college my hormones changed and I started spotting the week before my period–so 2 out of 4 weeks every month of dealing with PMS and the associated migraines was not fun. After I decided that I didn’t need the birth-control portion of the pill, I decided to quit taking it and see what happened. I’d also tried this in college once with the same result–no period for months. This time I went over 6 months before finally going to the doctor to get a rx (provera) to induce my period.After taking the provera every other month, my body still wasn’t adjusting to being on its own and wasn’t having anything close to a normal cycle; in fact I’d even started spotting some while taking the provera too. I had read about Maca months before and had ordered some but stuck it on a shelf and never really took it consistently. It had interested me not only because of the reproductive benefits, but also because of the energy and mood boost claims. I finally researched how much I should take to be effective and took it consistently for a few months. I ended up taking six pills (3000mg) per day. I don’t mind taking pills, so this wasn’t a big deal and it was convenient to carry. After I took it for a few days at that dosage, I could definitely feel a slight energy boost. I’d been sluggish and just unmotivated at work, and this definitely helped me become more focused. I did notice the first few times I took it that soon after, I would need to go to the bathroom. No terrible stomach pain like some reviews claim, but just a need to go #2; which I didn’t mind the extra help, since I don’t always eat enough fiber anyways.I first started taking it a few weeks after one of my provera-induced periods; so in the middle of my induced “cycle”. The day I should have gotten my period (using a standard 28 days after last period), I could have sworn I had some slight spotting, but then didn’t have any bleeding the next day. So I kept taking the Maca for the energy benefits, and induced another period the next month, and made sure to take the Maca almost every day after that induced period. I had glanced at a calendar and knew when day 28 was coming, but I was completely shocked when I actually started spotting that day….and even continued bleeding the next few days. I am absolutely convinced that the Maca was the cause, and would definitely recommend it!!!!! If you’re like me, and have suffered for years from hormonal issues (including really bad hormonal migraines several times a month while on and off the pill), Maca is definitely worth a try. The only thing it didn’t really help me with was libido; mine is still as low as it’s always been. Maybe if I continue to take it, that will get better as well. Just make sure you take at least 3000 mg.

I will always use this supplement
I have pcos and my periods are irregular and most of the time absent and we are trying to conceive, I would have to get progesterone injections every other day and that made me crazy I would just cry for absolutely no reason or get mad my body hurt for days it would give me bruises because it such a think serum. I desperately had to find another way so I would post questions on yahoo answers browse the web looking for something that would help manage my polycystic ovaries (pcos) Google as well I read a lot about Maca it pretty much seemed like a miracle pill so of course I was skeptical and that it has a tendency to give you a stomach ache but that part didn’t bother me because I could handle that compared to what I had been doing, so I decided to give it a whirl and I subscribed and received my bottle within about a week, started taking it the same day of course, it has a smell it’s different it doesn’t smell bad to me but not the best either I can’t describe the same it’s really unique, I took the suggested amount which was 1 capsule 2 times a day so 1000 mg a day I really didn’t feel a difference so I bumped it up to 2 capsules 2 times a day 2000 mg a day and that’s when I felt a difference a huge burst of energy! But I didn’t know a change in my libido but it was fine to begin with, And on CD(cycle day) 33 my period started! On it’s own! I haven’t been able to do that in almost 6 months and my periods were usually around CD 50, now I am in TWW (two weeks waiting) hoping to get my BFP because I had some implantation bleeding 🙂 So I recommend this to everyone I will never stop taking it.

They work, but don’t expect miracles
I bought this based on all the reviews I read saying it will improve your sex drive, but I didn’t notice that effect. Nonetheless, I have continued taking them daily for the last 6 months.PRO:This may be TMI, so sorry, but it’s pertinent. It seems to have regulated my periods. I have always had irregular periods in regards to length of period, length in between periods, and heaviness of flow. Now my periods are once per month and last about 4-5 days with regular to heavy bleeding. That is a huge improvement as they are more predictable and easier to handle.PRO:At first I noticed quite a large difference in my level of energy which lasted about 4 months. I took them every morning, but they didn’t help me to wake up like caffeine does. The difference in energy was more gradual and subtle throughout the day.CON:It may take a couple weeks of use to actually feel that boost in energy. Nowadays, I don’t feel like the energy effect has worn off somewhat. I feel sluggish and brain-dead often – but take this with a grain of salt because I don’t get enough sleep. Perhaps I need to increase my dosage or take them throughout the day again.Neither PRO/CON:Taking Maca at night is a bad idea because it will keep you awake – or at least it kept me awake. I have not taken it at night for months so I don’t know if that effect has worn off as well.CON:It has not improved my sex drive whatsoever. This is extremely disappointing. It seems to have helped a lot of people in this area but obviously it doesn’t work for everyone.CON:These are more effective if taken about 3 times a day (a dose of about 2 pills 3x per day). This is a negative for me because that is a lot of pills and I don’t remember to take them with me or to take more during the day. Plus that costs a bit of money. I don’t mind swallowing pills fortunately, but if you do, this will be a big con for you.PRO:If you do take them several times per day, you will notice a difference in your energy and be able to cut caffeine out of your diet (with a lot of effort and withdraws of course). That has been my goal, but I’ve only achieved using caffeine less often, not completely going without it. Still, this is a pro for me.Conclusion:I recommend at least trying this for one month. Take them daily and pay attention to the changes in your body to see if they work for you. It took about 3 months to regulate my period and about 2 weeks to increase my energy level. These must be taken regularly in order to work properly. I recommend taking these throughout the day for the greatest effect on your energy level.Don’t expect miracles though because the effects are generally subtle, but worth it for me. I still take these daily and plan to continue doing so because I notice decreased energy when I don’t take them.

I feel like I’ve been in a generally good mood since I’ve …
I wanted to take this to balance my hormones. I feel like I’ve been in a generally good mood since I’ve been taking it for a month. The most dramatic effect I’ve noticed is that it has completely curbed my sugar cravings and thus I have lost 7 pounds in two weeks. I don’t know if it’s because I’m not eating sugar that I’m not having dips in energy, but I no longer absolutely need a nap during the day, and my brain fog has disappeared. However the weird thing is that my breasts and butt have gotten a little shapelier even as I lost weight (but I’m naturally a good size, 125). Now you may think it’s all in my head, but there can be a box of donuts in front of me, and I will take one bite and not have the slightest interest in taking another bite. That is just plain weird for someone with intense sugar cravings. I wanted to stop eating sugar for so long because the brain fog was ruining my life. I feel like i’m “eating to live” now since I gauge when I’m hungry on when I’m getting irritable from not eating. I take two pills in the morning and one at night.The only downside I found is that I usually feel pretty bad when I’m near the end of my three month cycle on the Depo shot. But this month I felt absolutely awful. I have never been nauseous before and I felt nauseous for two days straight.. I can’t say it’s the Maca, but I think it is. Anyway, won’t be stopping this product because it’s life changing for me.My boyfriend started taking this too, just at night. I wanted him to take it because it’s packed with nutrients, and good for prostate health. Well I noticed after a while the difference between when he takes it or not because he wakes up in the middle of the night “ready to go” if you know what I mean lol.

My experience. Irregular cycle, increase in breast size, acne…
While I have read endless reviews, how this is a miracle for some, it was definitely not that for me. I had hopes for increased energy, sex drive, fertility, all the things this can offer. I have always been 100% regular, with my cycles. Never had acne. I am 31, with 2 small children. Any extra energy, would be great. Of course increased libido is a plus, for me, & my husband. Started out slow. 1 capsule a day, for a week, increased to the maximum recommended dose, 1500mg a day. I took that for a month. Honestly, I really didn’t have any noticeable changes. Maybe a little bit energy? My cycle was due. Usually, clockwork. 4 days later- it came. More painful than usual. Very heavy. Lasted 3 days, instead of 5. I researched more. I didn’t give in. The next month, I was 5 days date. Now.. Now, I am having my second period, in 1 month. I have been bleeding/spotting for 12 days out of 22 days. I am on day 7 of (consecutive) bleeding/spotting. This really stinks. I am definitely not pregnant. I am definitely unfamiliar with my body right now. I have never, had anything like this happen. I’m not sure if the maca is part of the next part, but I can say that my breast have gotten bigger. A whole cup! That’s pretty awesome. I have gained 9lbs in the last several weeks. (I was trying to) I read where women said, “this made my butt bigger!! Or, my breast.. ” I seriously didn’t think that was possible. I didn’t take this for weight gain, or butt & breast enhancement. But, indeed it did. No complaints about that. Acne, I have had zits, & bumps on my face, back.. Yuck. Never, have I had this problem. I’m not sure if I would recommend this, or not.. That’s why I give the 3* review. Use at your own risk. This was my experience.

Pregnant within 5 months of use
I am 32, never been pregnant before in my life. Use to be married for 8 years and we didn’t use protection and I never got pregnant. Never got pregnant with anyone else I had sex with either. I started taking this now maca root, 3 capsules once a day at the beginning of this year (2020) and I became pregnant after 5 months of taking it with my current boyfriend. I wasn’t taking it to get pregnant though and I didn’t think it would actually make me pregnant. I started taking it because I heard it helps with growing a bigger booty and that it helps with acne. I thought I couldn’t get pregnant but this can definitely make you pregnant so keep that in mind when using this. It definitely works for weight gain by speeding up your appetite and making you want to eat more. You gain weight everywhere though not just your booty so keep that in mind too (unless you have a strong will of controlling yourself from not overeating when maca root speeds up your appetite.) Not sure if it helped with my acne or not. I still get acne but not as bad as I use to when using this. If you want to have a baby though I definitely recommend maca root if you’ve been struggling to get pregnant or if you think you are unable to get pregnant. Also I recommend taking it with food because it would give me a headache sometimes if I took it without food.

Helps not only with libido, but also stress support
When people think of Maca, people generally just resort to libido – It does help with that, but it also is great for stress support. My wife and I both began taking maca because, well, life be stressful. I’m in leadership full time at my company, have started my own business, and have 3 kids. She works part time and is primarily the one home with the kids more than I am. It’s a lot! This is one of the supplements we added to our stack to help with stress support and her overstimulated nervous system. She takes 2 capsules a day and I take one. We both notice a difference with taking the supplement versus not. Would definitely recommend.
