Can Maca Root Balance Hormone Levels?
Can maca root give a male a bigger butt? I'm 5'8, 140 lbs, 25 y/o. I'm also a ts who is on hormones? I heard maca can balance your hormone levels, but will that affect me badly (more testosterone and less curves)? Should I just stick to my regular hormone regimen and workout routine?

Hello,
I would not recommend using the mentioned herbal product without doctor advise to increase your libido. Instead, you can take testosterone supplement if your testosterone level low.
Try to maintain your weight within the normal range.
Kindly let me know your serum testosterone level and USG pelvis report to guide you further.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Parth Goswami, General & Family Physician
