Maca rood while pregnant
I’m starting this thread because I haven’t found one and I know there’s a lack of research. I was taking maca root regularly prior to conceiving, like consistently for 4 years maybe. I started taking it for energy and wanted to naturally replace my adderall somehow. I started to notice it increased my libido after a while as well (double win).. however, when I got pregnant I immediately stopped taking all of my supplements, I truly missed my maca root and ashwagandha in the evenings. Although I haven’t taken ashwagandha since testing positive, I am now a day away from 28 weeks and I started taking my maca root again maybe 3 weeks ago. My energy has increased and my sex drive has come back (it vanished after bout 13 weeks and came full force throughout my second, went away again). Yes I feel bad due to lack of research but also, there’s no research? I haven’t had any complications luckily. Things my first pregnancy, I am 33 years old. I got my energy back, my sex drive back. I’m just sharing information if someone else was looking around like I was. I made sure to wait until later in my second trimester. I don’t regret it. My baby is as happy as can be and so is mommy.
