I know I'm not a regular updater on here but I thought I should add this update

I've had to stop taking the Maca Root

For the last week I have been continuously nauseous accompanied with stabbing pains low down in my back. It culminated in me being sick yesterday and suffering with severe stabbing pains low down in my back again. My dad said I should stop taking the Maca Root and see what happens. So this morning I didn't take it and I'm pleased/or sad to say that I've had no nausea, no vomiting and no back pains.

I'm going to stay off it for a few days then maybe try again on half the recommended dose and see if that does anything.

good luck you guys and I hope the Maca works out for you

Babiesplease you are so welcome... I lOVE this forum, gives me such hope and the ladies are FANTASTIC

Hollybush I am so sorry you are feeling like that. I never had a problem taken the Maca, even in the organic powder form I wish you luck

BabiesPlease where in your cycle are you? When can you ?

Wow Kel from your description I'm glad I've never had heartburn - although if it was a preg symptom for me I'd gladly suffer!

HollyBush - wow, that's bad... I hope you feel better. I guess we are all different and react differently to things... Maybe the Maca isn't for you..

I actually haven't taken it for a few days, I kept forgetting and OH has stopped taking it to see if the twitch in his eye goes lol!! I may start again on CD1.

I have been v tired last few days, so that could be the lack of Maca, although I think I always get like that before AF...

Welsh how are you hun? Where are you?! I see your chart finally sorted itself out..

Hope you're doing ok x x x

 

[BabiesPlease]

SBB im not sure technically what state youd call it but im due on on sunday .. so i have 5days left ... i think i should wait until friday at least to test ... what do you think ?

And Kel yes you are right it sets my mind at rest to talk to people in the same boat as me .. its great x

 

[SBB]

Hmmm... well I'd have caved and tested by now - but I just love to POAS

On an early result test like FRER you can get a result up to 4 days early so Friday would be fine. Just make sure you use a sensitive test. And don't be too disappointed if it's BFN because lots of people don't get a BFP until after AF is due...

[BabiesPlease]

well if i test friday thats two days before im due on ... i guess i could wait another few days til after AF is due .. i nearly cracked yesterday but like you said i dont want it to be a BFN .. x

 

[kelster823]

Babiesplease,,,, I woulda POAS already, I stocked up with the Dollar Tree tests the other day so by the end of next week I'll be a PEE-O-HOLIC.. lol

Kel- No I don't chart and I have not been to a doctor because I don't have insurance...I try to go but the docs never do anything and I end up paying an arm and a leg for nothing so I gave up. I have a cyst on my left ovary and hoping Maca will help it in any way! : /

aww sweetie I am so sorry you have no insurance, that stinks..

I know all to well how much it costs, as I work for the biggest medical insurance company in NJ


maybe you should start charting..... to go the fertilityfriend.com

do you have a BBT? they are pretty cheap in walmart, cvs, walgreens ect ect... start taking your temp each morning at the same time, and place the temp info onto your chart w/ FF that might help pinpoint your O

 

[Peach428]

Thanks...and I work at Walgreens...Their tests are way too expensive! ...lol...I like the Wal-Mart ones!..lol

Hi HunnieBee!

Well, have a good read through the thread and see what you think. Some of the ladies have noticed a positive difference. Personally I don't think I noticed much of a difference, but having said that none of us have been taking it for very long!

I think it might be worth a shot! Everyone reacts differently so it's hard to recommend something!

if you decide to go for it let us know how you get on

x x x

 

[SBB]

Babiesplease your symptoms sound good! Well not good that you almost hyperventilated but you know what I mean!

So I finally got a pic under my name, now you can see what I look like - a french frie with a face drawn on!

Can anyone help me with where to buy maca? I've googled it but i'm never sure with buying supplements online as where is okay to buy from. I'm in the UK.
Thanks.

 

[SBB]

MrsEngland I got mine from here:
https://www.creative-nature.co.uk/maca.html

But Holland and Barratt probably sell it?
