Hey TTCbaby I have missed ya on here! I hope you are well and healing up just fine after surgery. :hug:

Kel- I hear ya on ALL the pills!! I feel like im a walking herb store! :haha: Well hopefully a break will be what you need.

Welsh- Are you getting surgery? If so, for what? If you dont mind me askin? :hugs: Just wondering sense you were talking to lucy about GA!

Lucy- :hi: hunni!! Welcome here. I love it here and have LOVED my maca. I feel so great taking it. I think it has helped with my endo pain so maybe it will help with the PMS.:hug:
 
I know someone asked this a while back.. and you guys get this a lot but could all the ladies who take/have taken the capsules help suggest a kind and/or dosage to take? I see a bunch of them that are 800 mg organic capsules and there's 100 in there just wondering if I should try these. Thanks in advance! :hugs:

thinking of you!
 
Whit :hugs:

I sent you a link what I buy... I buy it quanities of 3 bottles at a time and I took 2 pills each am............... but I know some of the girls take a larger dose
 
Thank you! Im still debating as there are some 800 capsules and would be nice to only have to take two. LOL
 
whit - everywhere i've read recommended dosage is 1,500mg - 3,000mg. i took 2 800mg ones and a half of another every day.

i get to try with DH next month whit. hoping your little angel gives you another :bfp: very soon and we can be bump buddies. :hugs:

Hey girls, I have been googling Maca again and it looks like quite the wonder herb! Tnt, you are right, it really is supposed to help with PMS symptoms, also with energy levels, sleep patterns, and even has been reported to bring temps to a normal range - I have felt since starting to temp that mine seem a bit on the low side. :wacko:

I may be getting on the Maca train! Can you take it after Ov when TTC?

And do you really have to stop and have a month off after 3 months on?

The agnus Castus is really not doing so much for my PMS, which I never had before I went on BC, but is pretty bad every month now. :growlmad:

The best things it says is an increase in energy levels, which I do have alot of trouble with as the hormones fluctuate. Wow I am glad you put me onto this Kell. Gonna go and google some more now. :happydance:

How's it going today Kell?

Welsh - know what you mean, I got AF last week after MC, had been convinced I was preg again..it's horrible. :hugs:
:hugs:
:dust:
 
Morning Lucy:hugs:
You can most definately take it after Ov hun and they even say it's safe in pregnancy as well...I would definately consider taking it for 1st tri next time...until the placenta takes over progesterone anyway. I don't think any of the pg girls on here have continued with it in pg thou.
I haven't stopped taking it for a month hun....I figured that it forms a staple part of the inca people's diet...so they probably don't have a month off:dohh::lol:

Let us know what you discover whilst googling....never tire of hearing the benefits:lol:
If you decide to get some I get mine from https://www.creative-nature.co.uk they are really fast at delivery...even the standard royal mail option:thumbup: Be careful thou as they do the powder form in various sizes as well as the capsules...capsules everytime for me:thumbup:

:hugs:
 
Hi Welshie :wave:

I'm definitely going to continue to take it with my next pregnancy. I have a slight hormonal imbalance anyway that the docs cant figure out, so I guess it couldn't hurt.
 
Thanks Welshie, :flower:

I think it has too many benefits to be ignored, even athletes take it to increase performance and stamina! I think I am going to order some, when should I start taking it? Day one of next cycle? Glad you can take in pregnancy. Maybe it will help the bean stick? I am willing to try anything, since I have no answers anyway yet - Whit I will do the same as you. :flower:

Even if I don't get my BFP for a few cycles, I would dearly love to get rid of this awful PMT, I have the lot every month! Cravings, mood swings, BB sore, massive bloating.....I hate it! :growlmad:

In googling, it said the Inca people take it their whole life, and the women stay fertile a lot longer than we do!

In a way I wish I had never gone on the pill, I feel it has totally messed up my hormonal system, and every time it starts to straighten out, I have a MC and am back to square one! :nope:
I know the sensible thing would be to wait 6 months for my hormones to recover, and then TTC, but I can't wait that long!!!

Yes, the Maca train is coming and I am going to get onboard! :hugs::dust:
 
Hiya Whit lovely:hugs:
How are you doing?:hugs:

I just found this article https://www.associatedcontent.com/article/269730/the_side_effects_of_maca_root_during.html?cat=5

I definately will continue until the end of first tri....maybe even thru 2nd as well....the only thing that puts me off using it the whole way thru is that I'm pretty sure I've read that women that take it throughout can have larger babies....After almost needing a stitch with Callum at only 3lb 13oz....I dread to think....:shock::dohh::rofl:

Doing ok hun, think the worst is over.. thanks for asking.

BTW, welcome lucy!!
 
:rofl:....You're completely right babe of course....healthy and here is all that matters:hugs:

I'm glad you're doing ok sweets....just know that we're all here for you whenever:hugs:
 
Hey Whit, Are you MC now? Sorry I ready your date the UK way round, but you guys read it the other way. So sorry, it awful I know. I had my last one 6 weeks ago, I feel so much better for being on here.....I was getting quite down about things until I met all these girls. Yesterday I didn't even get upset in the supermarket with all the babies and preg girls everywhere, that is progress!

Anyway thinking of you :hugs:
 
Yes unfortunately. I honestly cant believe I am taking it so well. I felt it inside the whole time something wasnt quite right. Pretty sure it was a blighted ovum. So sorry for your loss as well hun. The only thing to do is to hop back on the bandwagon! :winkwink:

I must say that is a feat, dont know if Id be able to look a pregnant lady in the face!!
