Men, listen up! Are you using herbs for your fertility? If not, maybe it’s time to give them a try. Herbs can be amazing allies along with a healthy diet and lifestyle to help turn around fertility challenges like low sperm count or motility, or high stress. For example, the herb, Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera), has been found clinically to improve sperm quality and reduce fertility problems in men.

Ashwagandha Rejuvenates Mind and Body

Ashwagandha is one of Ayurveda’s finest herbal treasures. Translated from Sanskrit, Ashwagandha literally means “smell of a horse” as it is believed to keep the system virile and strong like a stallion. Ashwagandha is a superior adaptogen herb at the same level as ginseng and offers similar benefits. As an adaptogen, Ashwagandha is an herb that supports the body in its natural efforts to rebalance itself. It supports nervous system function, builds stamina, and can enhance libido for men and women.

For male fertility, research shows exciting news about Ashwagandha.

• A 2013 pilot study published in Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine finds men with oligospermia (low sperm count) experienced a 167% increase in sperm count, a 53% increase in semen volume, and 57% increase in sperm motility after using an Ashwagandha root extract as compared to placebo.
• A 2011 study published in Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine reveals treatment with Ashwagandha relieves stress, improves antioxidant levels, and semen quality in men with stress related infertility. This same study showed a 14% pregnancy rate for the partners of the subjects studied.
• A 2010 study published in Fertility and Sterility shows Ashwagandha decreases free radicals, improves semen quality, and helps regulate important hormones like testosterone, follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH) and prolactin (PRL) in the male system.
