Objectives : This study focuses on the effect of the extract which We manufactured by adding Aliium sativum to Ojayeonjonghwan on the amount of semen, the number and the activity of sperm. Methods : We observed any changes in the amount of semen, the number and the activity of sperm after orally administering the test drug for thirty days and taking semen samples from a selected group of men - healthy men in their 20s, as well as men in their 40s who were feeling a decrease in energy. Results : This experiment showed the result that the amount of semen increased by adding Aliium sativum to Ojayeonjonghwan in the case of men in their 20s, but did not show a statistically significant result. It showed the result that the amount of semen increased by a statistically significant level as well as the activity of sperm. Consequently, the result indicated that orally administering the extract added Aliium sativum to Ojayeonjonghwan increased the amount of semen, the number and the activity of sperm for men in their 20s. Men in their 40s who are feeling a decline in energy generally decreased the amount of semen, the number and the ratio of activity of sperm. However the amount of semen remarkably increased and the number and the activity of sperm increased but the result was not statistically significant after orally administering the test drug for thirty days. Conclution : Eventually, the result after orally administering the test drug to the group of men in their 20s and 40s for thirty days indicated that both groups increased the amount of semen, number of sperm and activity of sperm to a statistically significant degree.
