Anyone hear of Tribulus - male infertility herbs I got this brochure from the health store about tribulus terrestris, also known as Ci Ji Li, Bai Ji Li or just Ji Li, also Burra Gokhru, Caltrop, Puncturevine & Goats Head. It says it "may be of benefit...for poor sperm count...and/or poor sperm motility... and increases LH to stimulate the testes to secrete testosterone. ...Studies in Bulgaria involving 212 men with ...sperm deficiency revealed that Tribulus extract can significantly improve the quantity and quality of sperm. Men treated with tribulus produced semen with a greater number of sperm and a higher percentage of motile sperm that swam faster and further". From Natural Facts P/L Nutritional information service, QLD, Australia. Apparently it takes a couple of months to work, like most herbs.
Perhaps this info will be of some interest to ttcers here at sc?
Obviously, if you consider using it, please do some research first, and/or talk to a herbalist/natural therapist about it.
