That's a good queston. I don't really understand how maca works. I'm pretty sure that there's at least one study (maybe more) showing that maca does not actually increase testosterone, at least in men. I'm not aware of any contrary studies showing that it does. On the other hand I'm pretty sure there are studies showing that it helps with male libido. Before I saw that, I was worried that it might just be a nutritious dried fruit without any other special qualities. I don't think the researchers were able to figure out the mechanism. I wish I could actually reference these studies, or at least remember the details, but it was a long time ago and I didn't save or bookmark them. I wish I were more organized 
To me, the studies showing that it increases libido are very encouraging (assuming I haven't just imagined those studies
) It seems to imply that maca is capable of doing something special, even if it's not clear how it does it. If maca really is good for booty growth, it must be doing it without affecting testosterone. All I know is that Isabelle has been taking FG, hops, and maca for a long time, and her BE results have been absolutely spectacular. I think I might take it for that reason alone.
Isabelle has said some interesting things about maca that I haven't heard any where else. Her thread is so long I'm having a hard time finding the details, but basically she said that it helps prevent stalling. I can't remember how it's supposed to do that.
