Can i take maca root and fenugreek if i have hyperthyroidism before.? i want it to enhance and balance my hormones and for more feminity.ty please answer

You can, but WHY?: If your hyperthyroidism has been successfully treated and is resolved, then your body should respond normally to anything. However, these roots and extracts have absolutely no beneficial effects and are potentially harmful. There is no way to enhance or balance your hormones. Your body will do that naturally if you let it.
