Pregnant after 2 months use
I am pregnant after two months of Cassava root products. I started out using Forever Blessed Organic Cassava Root, then switched to this one after reading that I could take up to 6 of these a day and the dosage would be higher and easier on my budget. I ended up taking the Forever blessed for about two weeks then started using these when I got them and was on my second bottle when ovulation test said that i was ovulating a week after i just finished ovulating. That prompted me to just take a pregnancy test which turned up positive. I was taking up to 8 of these a day though to try to help increase my odds as my husband and I had been trying for over a year with one success that ended as quickly as it started. I do not yet know if we are having twins, but just one would be great too as it aids in fertility not just twinning. The product quality is also better, you can really see the skin in the pill and the root pieces so its more whole and less powdery than the Forever Blessed one. All in all I am happy with the product.Update:November 5th 2013, Just had our first ultrasound and we know for sure that we are having one baby. Would have been nice to get two out of the way, but one is a nice start. Good luck to everyone trying and happy possible twinning.

Regulate your cycle!
So we had been trying for 3 months when I started taking Cassava. My cycles were all over the place and I was looking for a natural way to balance myself and regulate my cycle so we could conceive sooner. The 3 months we were trying my cycles were 37, 46, and 41 days long (all over the place). I had done research and discovered the cassava root is known to help naturally regulate a woman's cycle and increase the chances of having twins. I had little to no interest in having twins, but I just really really wanted to have "A" baby. The two months of taking cassava root my periods regulated! Could be coincidence, or could be Cassava, may never know. My cycles went back to being their normal 34 days long, and now two months later, pregnant! If we find out it's more than one in there, I will update!TIP: Only take Cassava root in the weeks you're ovulating, waiting on ovulation, and on your period. If you suspect your pregnant, I recommend to stop taking them. So in other words, stop taking after ovulation and until you get your next period (if you do!). The more research I did, although the root is good for regulating your cycle and moving your eggs, it has also been suspected to be linked to some miscarriages. One week, I got a really bad migraine for a few days, I stopped taking them for the time being. This illness was most likely unrelated, but since this is not FDA approved and it could have been caused by them, it was best to just stop for a few days. Keep in mind bad/expired/molded cassava root can cause cyanide poisoning. Not sure if this is in large doses, or what, but just keep in mind if you start showing symptoms similar to cyanide poisoning. Stop taking them and go to the ER. I chose this specific supplier based off this fact, because they have a lot of good reviews, testimonials, multiple products, and seemed the most "legit" out of all of them. Over all it is a natural product so I don't see how much harm it could really do to you. It seemed to work for us, even if it was a placebo effect.

Distended bloat. BEWARE Ginger tea is antidote!!!!
Please acknowledge the warnings and gut bloat. No twins either but abdominal pain and pressure. Doctor and second opinion doctor do NOT recommend this. Supposed to come from Africa but manufactured in Alaska? Do the math. Please refer to headline for (somewhat) of an antidote.

High quality product, but not for everyone
As I'm getting older, I wanted to have a boost in my fertility when starting to try. After some research, I decided to try cassava. I took 4-6 capsules daily starting in July until October. There were immediate results from taking it: first ovulation, I was far more crampy than usual. First period was also harder than usual. I pressed on. Around ovulation in October, I was crampy and one day got so dizzy that I collapsed. It turned out I was having ovarian cysts and that month the cyst hemorrhaged. Obviously I stopped taking the cassava immediately. It took about two months for my body to stop producing the cysts.Clearly this is a high quality product with pure cassava. The company has excellent customer service, and if you are going to choose taking cassava, I would recommend this product.That being said, if you feel bad or funny taking the cassava, trust your body and stop taking it. It's my own fault that it got as bad as it did with me. I kept saying to myself something doesn't feel right after a month of taking it, but I didn't stop to really think through what was different from the previous month (this was the only new factor).

I Think It Worked!
I’m trying these for the first time this month so will update if I get a BFP.One complaint: my bottle had no dosage instructions and had to read the reviews to figure out how much and how often. Fingers crossed.Update 1: I used it diligently (6 capsules, 3x a day from CD1 till O day) and I got a BFP the first month using it! Don’t know whether it’s twins or singletons yet, but will update a second time after my first ultrasound next week.Update 2: we saw our little peanut! Only one baby in there this time, but still grateful to have a baby on the way, even if it's an Singleton! I'll definitely use this product again next time!

Tried another brand last cycle and then read better reviews on this company so I decided to try it. Just started my new cycle today and started this brand. I'm hopeful. I'll update review in the future is we get pregnant :) I'm not trying for twins as much as trying to boost our chances of conception. We've been trying for over four years now. But twins would be great too!

The pills do what it say, but no twins ...
The pills do what it say, but no twins. I used only two bottles and got pregnant right away. I rate it 4 stars because there is a side effect which my boobs were very sore to the touch. Now I'm 18 months pregnant
