Update on me :)

Just a quick update on me, DH and I have both started taking the Maca, right now we have just started 1500mg (we worked our way up) and we will stop at this dose or possibly one more pill added. DH has had more energy, has been talking about it a lot how he has so much more energy.. and me, TMI I have a ton more CM than I have ever had before! Even DH mentioned it when we dtd the other day

So it's definitely already making some changes even though it's still so soon! It's been maybe 4-5 days now...? Can't wait to see how we feel after it has time to build up!

We're taking the month off from ttc, and not ntnp either, just not trying at all. I have to get my wisdom teeth out and be put under and all that, and xrays.. just don't want to risk it this month, and then that gives the maca time to build up so hopefully when we do get our bfp again it decides to stick around

What is maca?

Whatever it is, I hope you get your BFP soon as well.

This is just a basic article about it Studies Show That Maca Boosts Sex Drive

but there's a few studies that have been done (not many, but some) out there, and basically it's a food and it has a lot of nutrition and stuff in it and when you take it it helps your body regulate its' hormones. Most people use it for libido but it also supposedly helps sperm count and fertility if you have a hormone issue. Since I have had the m/c and a chemical over the course of a year I'm hoping it will help my hormones

I hope it works for you! I've also read great things for both men and women so that's great that it's already giving you some good side effects. It would be great if you get a surprise BFP this cycle!!
