May help boost testosterone and increase fertility in men

Some research has demonstrated that ashwagandha supplements improve male fertility and raise testosterone levels. In one study, 43 overweight men aged 40 to 70 with mild weariness were administered ashwagandha extract or a placebo tablet daily for 8 weeks. The ashwagandha medication was related to an 18% increase in DHEA-S, a sex hormone involved in the synthesis of testosterone. Participants who used the herb experienced a 14.7% higher increase in testosterone than those who took a placebo. Furthermore, a meta-analysis of four research discovered that ashwagandha administration significantly enhanced sperm concentration, volume, and motility in males with low sperm count.

In men with normal sperm counts, it also enhanced sperm concentration and motility. However, the researchers found that there is presently insufficient data to confirm ashwagandha's potential benefits for male fertility and that more high-quality studies are required.
