Hi Melanie! I just started taking Femenessence Maca Harmony capsules for fertility. I've been TTC for about 16 months. I've always had a 5 day cycle but for the last 6 months my cycle changed to 3 days and my last cycle was only 2 days long. Do you know if Maca root can help to regulate my menstrual cycle? And is it safe to take every day? Thank you! 🥰💚
@@NourishwithMelanie Thank you so much for your reply! My cycle is 2 days late but it usually varies from 28-33 days. Femenessence Maca Harmony is the only thing I've done different this month..
@@christinebeharry7084 Not pregnant yet. I haven't been consistent with taking Maca but I've seen no changes to my menstrual cycle. It's still light and short. My doctor is referring me to a fertility endocrinologist.
Hello melanie ur videos are amazing just loved ur sweet gesture the way u reply to each and everyone is truely comendable i just want to know that for how long we have to use it? I want quick pregnancy becoz i love kids alot 😊
Hello Miss. Thanks for your video, but I took maca and it makes my period heavier that last almost 1 months. I go to the doctor and take a pills to stop my period, and now I didn't get my period back for almost 3 months but I am 100% not pregnant.
My pleasure :) There is not a lot to suggest that they shouldn't be taken at similar times or if there is any benefit of taking them together. However it shouldn't hurt!
Hi Jen, There are no clinical studies on Maca Root during pregnancy and so because there is no research, we would advise ceasing it prior to pregnancy. Although, please note that Maca Root has been used traditionally by pregnant mums. Hope that helps!
Research is limited so I cannot provide a strong answer. However, from what is available it seems approximately 3 grams / day for a few months is generally considered safe.
What if your on a conceptive method (Nexplanon) right and have low interest in sex but not of you will can you take maca without getting pregnant it a five year family planning am using now but early next year it will be removing so I was wonder if it a 100% for you to get pregnant while taking it plz looking back for a reply......please and thank you
Im starting my maca 2nd day today but its in a form of powder it makes me almost throw up because of the smell its aweful but because am trying ttc I have to bear with it or is the capsule form much better?
Spring Valley supplements sucks. They are way under dosed. 500mg of maca is nothing. To see real change you need at least 5g (5000mg), depending what your goal is. Spring Valley is waste of money.
Hi mam...I want to during pregnancy... recently I consulted my doctor...she told I have some hormones im-balance and thyroid hormone levels is 5.4...sooo please tell me how to improve my body during pregnancy...please reply madam

There is no solid evidence on the direct impact it has on AMH levels! But it's worth a try. You may also find this video helpful - ruclips.net/video/4ei2-qMbQAk/видео.html
AMH is only an indication of your egg count, so yes there is. But you’d certainly want to try sooner rather than later...and take good care of the eggs you have

Helps either hormones not just making you want to do it more 😂

It delayed mine 6 days.
