Synopsis
Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 2
Tribulus Terrestris has been used traditionally in various cultures, particularly in Ayurveda, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and folk medicine, as a remedy to improve male reproductive health, libido, and sexual function. The plant is believed to enhance vitality, combat infertility, and support overall male reproductive system function. However, modern scientific research provides limited support for these claims. Some small studies have investigated the potential of Tribulus Terrestris to boost testosterone levels or improve sperm quality, but results are often inconsistent or methodologically weak. Systematic reviews and meta-analyses generally conclude that there is insufficient clinical evidence to confirm its efficacy for improving male reproductive parameters in healthy men. Most positive findings are anecdotal or based on animal studies, which do not always translate to humans. Thus, the widespread use of Tribulus Terrestris for male reproductive support is rooted primarily in traditional practices rather than robust scientific validation.
