Objective: Male infertility is a significant global health challenge influenced by various factors, including genetic issues, environmental influences, and lifestyle choices. Iranian traditional medicine, with its long-standing history of using medicinal plants, offers natural remedies for addressing male infertility. Many of these plants are known to improve sperm quality, regulate hormones, and enhance the male reproductive system. This review aims to examine the medicinal plants effective in treating male infertility based on the principles of Iranian traditional medicine.
Methodology: This review explores the traditional sources of Iranian medicine to identify medicinal plants known to be effective in treating male infertility.
Results: The findings highlight several key plants, such as Tribulus terrestris, ginger, walnut, almond, grape, fenugreek, parsley, garlic, chamomile, saffron, andrographis, oregano, carrot, red raspberry, cherry, clover, Vitex agnus-castus, green beans, fava beans, soy, celery, spinach, green tea, nettle, banana, and onion, which are considered among the most important medicinal plants for treating male infertility in Iranian traditional medicine.
Conclusion: The medicinal plants identified in Iranian traditional medicine can serve as complementary treatments alongside modern approaches for male infertility. However, further scientific research is required to confirm their effectiveness and standardize their use in clinical practice.
