in the whole ejaculate, the percentage of active (normokinetic) forms
of spermatozoids, and fertility indexes, together with a decrease in the percentage of inactive (diskinetic) forms of spermatozoids. Dry leaf powder of A. paniculata increases the risk accumulating
of glycogen and cholesterol in the testis, and increased activities of
lactate dehydrogenase in testis and alkaline phosphatase in testis and
ventral prostate, thus reducing the risk of fertility. But in other study, Extract of Andrographis

andrographolide, have found to be no effect on total sperm count and
sperm motility and levels of testosteroneand fertility indices in treatment groups were found to be comparable with that of the control in rats.
