Brief Summary
|
- Male infertility is a major health problem across the
world. One of the main reasons for male infertility is extreme low sperm count
which affect the ability to conceive. Oligospermia is a condition wherein sperm
count is less than 15 million/ml and is multifactorial in origin, such as
unhealthy lifestyle, lack of physical activity, high pressure jobs, poor diet,
alcoholism, smoking and tobacco chewing.
- In India nearly 50% of infertility is related to the
reproductive anomalies or disorders in the male of which 90% are related to
oligospermia.
- Oligospermia can be correlated with Ksheena Shukra. In
Ksheena Shukra Vata and Pitta Dosha undergo vitiation and disturb the normal
physiology of Shukra Dhatu. Vrushya Chikitsa like Dhatu Upachaya (Shukra
Janana) is beneficial. The Vrushya/Rasayana Dravyas having properties like
Madhura, Tikta, Snigdha & Guru should be administered.
- Hence Narasimha Churna mentioned in Bhaishajya
Ratanavali is selected as trial drug and compare its effect with Gokshuradi
Churna in the management of Ksheena shukra (Oligospermia) The study is a
Randomised controlled clinical trial. 40 patients of Oligospermia will be
selected incidentally and randomly assigned into two groups; Group ‘A’ and ‘B’
by software generated chart. Group A patients will be given Narasimha Churna and
Group B will be Gokshuradi Churna respectively.
- Total Study duration will be 60 days and contain 4
visits (0th day, 15th day,31st day, 60th day.), which includes administration
of trial drug for 30 days and post medication follow up on 60th day. After
study, data will be collected from case report form (CRF) and statistically analysed
by using appropriate parametric and non-parametric tests and results will be
obtained. On that basis results, conclusion will be drawn.
