Icon7 just bought maca. Questions.........

I have been taking clomid but i am going to take a break from it next cycle. I got maca root yesterday. Brand name MacaSure. They are pure root and have 750mg per cap. The bottle says to take 2-4 caps with meals. Does that mean every meal? that just seems like alot to take every day. They are 25 bucks for a bottle of 60 where i am from.

What would u say the dose is that i should take? DO i have to wait to start it when i start a new cycle? I have been ttc for over 5 years and I am just ancous to get it started. Any info you have for me would be wonderfull!!! Thanks so much.

Default Re: just bought maca. Questions.........

Hi Melissa,

I'm not a regular poster on this particular board, but I lurk all the time!!! I recently started Maca too, and I bought MacaSure by Sequel in the 750mg caps too! When I read the 'suggested use' on the bottle, I took it to mean 'a total of 2-4 caps per day', with meals. So, I've been taking 1 cap at breakfast, and 1 at supper. I've been on it for about a week and a half now, and I thought I might increase my dosage to 1 cap with each meal (total of 3 per day). I'm not sure if I feel any different since starting to take it, but I definitely feel good ( could just be spring fever though it's hard to tell). Anyway, I'd be interested in hearing how you're feeling on the dosage you're taking.

I haven't started mine as of yet. Not sure if i should start it now as i took clomid this cycle (i am post O and know i am not pg) or wait till af then start it. I just may bite the bullet and start it today. i am not going to take my clomid next month as i would really like to give the maca a shot and it is all natural so i would rather use that. And yes that is the exact brand I bought lol. i may try to take the 4 doses a day. I been ttc for over 5 years and i want all the boost i can gat lol. I will let you know how it goes. Thanks so much for the reply!!

Melissa
