A member asked:

Is maca root harmful ? i normally have very painful periods and have had a ectopic pregnancy in 2009 but since i started taking macca my period is ok

Safe: From my reading, this is an interesting botanical that does seem to have some physiologic effects, as it seems to have benefited you, and also seems to have minimal side effects. Big doses might make your thyroid bigger but probably would not affect function.
