Effect of Lepidium meyenii (MACA) on sexual desire and its absent relationship with serum testosterone levels in adult healthy men.

abstract：:Progressive Motility Sustaining Factor (PMSF) was isolated from human epididymides. PMSF could significantly improve progressive motility of oligozoospermic as well as asthenozoospermic semen. PMSF was found to increase cyclic AMP accumulation by the human spermatozoa indicating its possible mode of action. ...
