Abstract:
Alcohol drinking is one of the major factor for male infertility. In undeveloped and some developing nations, medicinal herbs used to treat male infertility as an alternative to standard. The purpose of this work was to assess the effect of Junglans regia and Nigella sativa on male infertility in wistar rats caused by ethanol. During the course of 14 days, fourty two (42) male wistar rats being randomly assigned to seven groups of six rats each. Group I animals (Control group) were administered with distilled water, Group II animals (Negative or inducer group) were administered with 38% Ethanol at a dose of 10 ml/kg body weight; Group III animals (Positive group) received 38% Ethanol administered with Clomiphene citrate as the reference medication; Groups IV and V animals were administered with 38% Ethanol co-treated with Junglans regia oil at the dose of 5ml/kg and 10ml/kg respectively. Group VI and VII were administered with 38% ethanol co treated with Nigella sativa oil at the dose of 5ml/kg and 10 ml/kg respectively. Testicular histology, sperm parameters and testosterone hormone were assessed. Due to ethanol ingestion, the large fall (p<0.05) in testosterone levels was recorded, ethanol ingestion resulted in a significant rise in sperm abnormalities and a significant reduction (p<0.05) in sperm count, motility, and viability. These findings were consistent with changes seen in the testis during testicular histopathology. Nevertheless, the harmful effects of ethanol on the reproductive organs, sperm viability, motility, abnormality and testosterone level were reversed when animals treated with Junglans regia and Nigella sativa oil.
