I had it while TTC1, not quite long enough to notice any good or bad difference. But, I can fairly remember, I couldnt take up the taste and it was one of the reasons to give up. Another one was the only one cycle I took Maca, I had an anovulatory cycle. I am not sure whether Maca was the culprit or not, but I couldnt continue with it afterwards.
Another site says to start slowly, as lot of Maca root can cause you a massive acne breakout and can wreck your cycle. What dose you are taking? I was taking 525 mg a day, which is not too high dose.

I take it and have for a while. To me the taste is quite disgusting so I put it on my smoothies. Even then I have to force it down. The pills didn't do anything for me but the powder really works. It was the only thing that cleared my skin up. Didn't have any effect on my cycles though until I added vitex. Which I think was more the vitex than the combo of them both. I haven't noticed any side effects.
