Background and purpose: Complementary medicine plays a major role in treatment of infertility. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of royal jelly on sperm parameters and testosterone levels in infertile men.
Materials and methods: In this quasi-experimental study, 100 infertile men attending the infertility treatment center in Sari Imam Khomeini Hospital were monitored for two months and then underwent a spermogram test. Afterwards, they were treated with royal jelly (100 mg/daily) for two months and spermograms were performed again. Statistical analysis was performed in SPSS V21.
Results: Royal jelly significantly increased sperm motility, improved morphology, and increased testosterone levels (P≤0.001), but, no significant difference was seen in sperm count before and after consumption of royal jelly (47.76 ± 23.59 and 50.28 ± 29.44, respectively, P≥ 0.2).
Conclusion: According to current study, royal jelly could be used as a supplement along with other medications to boost fertility and treat male infertility.
