So here goes...
I started taking maca root 2 months ago. I absolutely loved it at first... I was very energetic and bubbly which was nice because I'd been very down for quite some time. But eventually I started having stomach pains, headaches and started spotting days before my period.
I was really bummed cause I was really starting to notice that my breasts were filling out... I stopped taking maca during my period and continued after a week, but very slowly. I experienced none of the side effects but no growth or fullness either.
So my questions:
1. Why am I getting the side effects and what do they mean about my hormone balance if anything?
2. Is the anything I can take to balance the negative side effects and continue with maca?
3. Should I continue with the lower dose off maca even if I see no results?
