Maca has helped me so much!! Read if you are ttc

👼🏻Monica👼🏻🌈

Okay so, I lost 2 pregnancies one last year in October and one in feb this year. Both before 12 weeks. My cycles were always 28-29 days.. Ever since the last MC, my cycles have been from 30-35 days long. Ovulating approximately CD19.. that’s a normal luteal phase and all but that’s a long time to wait. The 2WW is so much worse. We decided to give it a break to “let my body heal” but it was more for emotional recovery. It was a hard time for us, we are only 18. We talked about it a few months ago and I was hoping my cycles would be back to normal, I would have ewcm again... which I haven’t had since I lost the last one... I thought it was just hormones regulating.. okay so we talked about it and we have started ttc again. We have tried for 4 cycles, the first one not actively because of stressful times outside of ttc.. second cycle normal natural ttc, no vitamins, no assistance at all.. just sex, no tracking. So last cycle we started tracking the time of o and tried having sex every day - every 2 days. This cycle, I decided I was already sick of negative tests.. (I had 2 false positives last cycle) and I decided to get menevit for my partner, and I am on blackmores conceive well gold.. and I came across maca root, meant to help with hormones and I thought it cant hurt.. got it from Woolworths (I’m from Australia) and it was cheap (like $10) for 100g and you have 10g a day. We both took it, we weren’t expecting many changes, and boy were we wrong. We both work full time, and the mornings were so much easier! Gave us sooo much energy, so much! We were noticing increased libido, and we were just having fun and having sex all the time!! (Sorry if tmi) anyway, I usually ovulate cd19-cd21.. and I am tracking with opks this month, and usually wouldn’t start testing until CD 14-16... but I usually also have pain on ovulating (middlemertz) or whatever it’s called lol.. so I went to the bathroom to test for ovulation and I had soooo much ewcm. It stretched all the way as for as my fingers would open up. Very clear and stretchy I was soooo over the moon happy, then the opk came up POSITIVE!! On cycle day 14!!! Like wholy cow it’s working. And we used preseed last night (after pos opk) and omg I cannot stop thinking about this maca. We are over the moon even thinking that itsregualting my hormones, if I get my BFP I’ll let you all know!! And I’ll continue taking it throughout my pregnancy, to keep hormones in a healthy range!! I’m ecstatic!
