Maca anyone?

[dan-o]

Does anyone here take maca? I bought some for DH a couple of years ago, but he never took it and doesnt want to, so it's sat here going to waste. Thought I might give it a go myself as I've heard us ladies can take it, does anyone know which cycle days and what dose?

Just spent a fortune today buying it for hubbie so he better start taking it !!! Will be interested to hear if any ladies taking it, I wasn't sure?

I bought some for my partner, have not begun yet

I take so many sups, not sure if I want to add another to the mix for me. Would be interested to hear any pos effects though

Thanks I was hoping you'd reply honey, I remebered you used to take it before!
Do you take every day or just up to ov?

Slight warning - don't take maca if you have insomnia. I took it about 3 years ago and it made my slight insomnia horrendous. I stopped taking it after a month, but the bad insomnia carried on for months after.

OK, thanks for the heads up.
I don't get insomnia, but didn't get on with the last herbal supplement (soy isoflavone) I took while TTC my son, so I will stop right away if any unwanted symptoms arise!!

Hi,
How much did you take and at what time of day?
My partner gets insomnia and it do not want to create a problem
