Maca root and preseed?

Just bought maca root tablets and pre seed lubricant, has anyone had any success using these? Been Ttc now going into month 11 so willing to try anything that works before we get the doctors involved! Would rather conceive naturally but if it comes to it, would take the help from the doctors. Ovulated on CD 21 last month and currently CD 2 so will start taking the maca when it arrives tomorrow and will use the lubricant during my fertile window as well as opk testing starting the day my period finishes🤞🏼
Heard good reviews about both so really hoping it works this time!🤞🏼🤍x

It worked for me, took 3 months to work (took 11 months in total to conceive). I also ate a raw carrot everyday -from what I remember it's supposed to regulate hormones or something, and I used a heated foot massager to improve circulation. I can't say for sure these things contributed to success or if it would have happened anyway, but it felt like I was doing something positive. Some people find macca root messes up their cycles though so be careful

I have heard about that too, some have said it made their cycle worse. I've been taking folic acid and inositol for the past month but haven't noticed any changes so now going to try pre seed and maca root. Going into month 11 and due to ovulate on the 21st so🤞🏼x

Hi! I used it when i ovulated august 17th and found out I was pregnant on the 26th! Now 13 weeks and 1 day! Definitely recommend it. Could just be a coincidence but it was my 13th cycle/month trying with my partner and it finally happened!! Sending you lots of baby dust 🤍

I used it 3 times the week I ovulated and once in July. It's difficult to stay positive when you've been trying so long but I hope it happens for you soon! Keep me updated? x

It is really hard but it’s nice to hear success stories like yours, I think I have ovulated today so DTD a lot more than usual this month and used pre seed for last week including today. And of course yeah I will keep you updated x
