Maca for Fertility – Customer Comments & Testimonials
"Maca has helped to conceive naturally when conventional fertility treatments failed. I now have a happy & healthy baby." – Rachel.W, United Kingdom
We tried a lot of things to get pregnant before we learned about peruvian maca in a book on natural fertility. My husband and I started taking it religiously after that. I got pregnant 6 months later and I’m sure the maca helped." - Jennifer and Ray Collins, Washington
"My pregnancy test came back positive last week! All I’m saying is that it’s been very hard for me to get pregnant and I started taking this in April. This whole time all I needed was a little help. I love this product. " - Deirdre Alexander
"Both, in our 40's, taking Maca to increase fertility. Did IVF, we're preggers!" - Anni K.
"It’s Incredible! Well, the wife and I are trying to conceive a child. We also just started two businesses, and between the actual workload and the stress of being new business owners it made performance a little worrisome sometimes. After about 2 weeks on the Maca I`m like a teenager again LOL. There is now never a question as to whether or not I`ll be “ready”. And we`re ovulating this week." - Customer asked to remain anyonymous
"I'm taking the maca for infertility issues. I started 2 months ago and am noticing changes to my cycle. I just ordered another bag (the 1lb this time) and am hoping for more results." - Linda
"Perfect quality. Got this for my partner as we are working on fertility. Black for him, red for me... It tastes good and is perfectly pulverized." - Samantha
"I messaged saying I’d send and update months back and here it is! After two miscarriages and crazy hormones that would not regulate. I Re Started taking the red maca 4 capsules everyday for two months to help my body regulate. On the third month I upped my dosage to 5 capsules. That same month, I got pregnant and this time around my progesterone was the highest it’s ever been! I took 5 capsules of the Red Maca all throughout my pregnancy with permission from my OB. I had a very healthy and easy pregnancy and just had all natural delivery. I’m happy to say our rainbow/maca root baby was born September 5! I’m convinced this product played a major role and plan to continue to take it for the rest of my life!" - Kelli Adams Johnson
"I wanted to let you know how much I love your product. My daughter was born 10 years Post vasectomy after her dad and I started taking Maca Powder. We are now trying for a second. Your powder is the best on the market. I am so grateful to have found your maca!!!!" Dabney
"Great product, this was recommended by a coworker and so far this is the best maca root I've experienced. I used other brands but this is by far the best for my PCOS hormone balance. Using maca root with a great diet allowed me to finally conceive my first and only child at 41. I'm truly blessed." -J.T.
"I would like to thank you soooo much big time for the quality and great maca you sell , it helped me magically in less than 4 weeks to boost my sperm count from 4M to 290M ,,, I can't believe it's true ... " A Sheikh
"I was told by a friend that she used this before trying to get pregnant. I then purchased this product with the intention to help with fertility. After taking this for only a few weeks I got my first positive pregnancy test after trying to conceive for about 7-8 months. This may have been a coincedence or it may have been this product that helped. Maca was the only thing we did different the month we conceived. My partner also took the black maca so we both were taking it every day. Would highly recommend trying this product! I mixed mine in with a smoothie which helped me drink it easier." Erica G.
"Taking 6 caps, with vitex, every morning. Cycle went from a stagnant 40 days, to a healthy 26. PMS, and cramping, greatly reduced. I'm 43, and trying for a third pregnancy. Battling endometriosis, adenomyosis, ovarian cysts, tilted urerus, dysmenorrhea, and fibromyalgia. Ordering another tub." - Anni K.
"Just to share, my wife became pregnant after consuming black maca for about six months after ten years of trying to have a kid; we have been sharing this miracle product with our friends who are trying to have children too. Also, my aged parents have also informed us that the Maca product has somehow given them more energy in their daily activities." - Kiang Meng
"Shipping and customer service was fantastic. Got my order fast. I decided to try maca 6 months postpartum due to positive things it can do for breast milk supply, low libido while breastfeeding, and energy levels. So far I’m 3 weeks into taking them daily and I’ve noticed it helping more and more each week as I continue to take it. It’s been great to add into my breast milk with no issues to my daughter. So glad to have found the maca team and trusting their pure 100% maca ingredient" - Brooklen
"I've order from The Maca Team twice and I absolutely love the maca powder. After researching high and low about maca powder, in which The Maca Team was the most informative, initially my cousin and I order all three powders. Not only did I gain my energy back, my PMS was 100% improved, and I became pregnant, which I thought I couldn't have any more kids. Maca powder has changed my life for the better and I love letting everybody. I refer it to everyone" - Jenyl Johnson
"After tragedy hit my family, of many things that got shaken up and messed up, one was my hormones. Everything in my life was completely haywire and suddenly also my cycles etc were too. I guess it shouldn't be surprising. I couldn't change or manage so much of what was going on, but after a while I tried to tackle a few of the areas where I might be able to do something. Red maca has helped me tremendously. My hormones have evened out, I have noticed more obvious fertility signs, and my normally somewhat irregular periods that were suddenly aaaaall over the place have become the most regular they have ever been. I even became pregnant with our bonus baby when age wise (42) and stress wise, it seemed that wouldn't and couldn't ever happen again. This baby has brought smiles and lightness back into our family that I didn't imagine I would ever see again. I feel less trepidation moving forward into the years of menopause etc, down the line with red maca on my side. It is filling in some gaps I apparently had. I absolutely dislike the taste. But I mix it with a couple ounces of juice or something and chug it down like a shot. Totally worth it." - Tara
"My husband has a varicocele and has had many semen analysis tests completed in the past. We have done IUI 4 times in the past year, the first 3 his sperm counts (after wash) was a total of 1.8-2.4 million with about 60% or less motility. He had been taking clomid to improve his count. In December he started your black maca (6 capsules per day), we had a new test done this week and his count was 19.4 million with 85% motility! This was amazing and totally shocking. The only thing that changed from the previous tests was the maca. We did not end up pregnant from that round of IUI. But a few months later we did! My husband had actually stopped the clomid but continued the Maca and we became pregnant naturally, without any medical intervention. This is was a complete shock given we had been trying naturally for over 5 years. Black maca in our case truly helped us conceive." - Anonymous customer
"I love maca, it has helped me so much with regulation of my menstrual cycle. Until maca I NEVER had regular cycles ever in my life. I am 46 years old, and recently started taking maca about 6 months ago. I have had 3 children at ages 37, 41 and 43. We would be thrilled to have another if God allows, so we have been actively ttc for several months now. We had some issues getting pregnant with my first 2 and I discovered fertilaid, vitex, and other related products that definately helped us get pregnant, however they did not regulate my cycles. In the past several months knowing age is against us we have been trying all of the stuff from the past plus supplements and diets etc, anything that would help in ttc. I wasn't ovulating before taking the maca, and assumed I may be going into perimenapause. The first month on maca I ovulated on day 23 and had a 35 day cycle. The next month I ovulated on day 16 and had a 28 day cycle. This has happened every month since (5 months so far)! It is so unusual for me that I am still shocked when it continues to happen. Don't know if another baby will be in the works but I can definately say that maca has done something for me that nothing else has. I also no longer have any of the massive pms symptoms I used to have. I weigh around 130 and take about a dropper full of the premium or red extract once or twice a day, plus 2 or 3 tsp of the premium or red powder per day. I also love the boost of energy I get from it. My husband uses the black extract and loves it as well. I can definately say that I will continue using maca daily!" - J.L.
"I was on birth control (IUD) for 8yrs, had a period maybe 2 times a year for those 8yrs. Me and my husband are trying to conceive our 3rd child for a year now and felt something was wrong since we felt it was taking longer than it should. Went to the doctor and was told I have PCOS because of my previous birth control. I did some research and came across Maca. Read that Red Maca is good for fertility in women and Black Maca is good for men's fertility. Bought some for me and my hubby and now have been taking Red Maca for 3 months! I now have had a regular period for these past 3 months! Even before birth control I was NEVER regular! This is amazing to me!! I am really hoping that this means we'll be having our 3rd Lil bundle of joy soon!" -Iris
"I'm feeling more level since I started the maca. Like my hormones are balancing out. I haven't been on it but maybe three weeks, and notice a difference in the way I feel over all. I'm taking some other supplements for memory and women's health, and I think the maca helps improve their performance. I'm also more energetic and not tired all the time anymore. I swear by maca, because before i had my son, i had seven recurrent miscarriages. A natural fertility person recommended maca. So when i found out i was pregnant again, I started taking maca, and I actually carried my son. He's now a happy healthy seven-year-old. Next time I order, I'm getting the premium maca, or the red and black, and mixing the two. I love the overall benefits." - S.A.
