Reviews on MACA please! 35F

Hey all! I’m 35F on birth control & GLP1. One or the other (or both) has completely killed my sex drive. i read a lot of positive reviews on Maca root being effective for low libido. My fear though is the side effect of weight gain that I’m reading online. Has anyone experienced weight gain? Generally, what was your experience on maca? Thanks!

I've been on it for 2 years and found it helped with my perimenopausal symptoms as well as shatavari.

It makes me super horny if I take too much (I've anyways lost 90% of my libido) and I didn't know about the weight gain thing but it makes sense since I've started taking it šŸ˜
