Infertility presents multifaceted challenges that encompass both physical and emotional burdens. Yoga, as a comprehensive system of mind-body medicine, serves as an effective intervention for managing male factor infertility, a complex lifestyle disorder with significant psychosomatic elements. This review explores the transformative role of yoga in addressing both the emotional and physical dimensions of infertility.

Background: Seminal oxidative stress has been shown to be a key factor in the development of male infertility. However, the benefits of infertility treatments with antioxidants such as coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) remains controversial.
Objectives: The aim of the present study was to assess the effects of CoQ10 supplementation on semen quality, i.

Background: Testicular torsion is a critical urological emergency that can lead to testicular ischemia and significant tissue damage. Citrulline, a supplement known for enhancing cellular metabolism and mitigating oxidative stress and inflammation, has been explored for its protective effects against testicular injury resulting from torsion and detorsion in rat models.
Methods: This study involved 42 Wistar rats, divided into six groups: Sham, torsion/detorsion (T/D), and four groups receiving varying doses of Citrulline (300, 600, 900 ) and vitamin E (20 ).

Background: Oxidative aggression is a hallmark of varicocele and may depend on decreased reactive ability of the endogenous antioxidant system following heat stress. We aimed to investigate the underlying mechanisms. Therefore, the expression of the main enzyme proteins involved in the generation of endogenous antioxidant power, cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS), cystathionine gamma-lyase (CSE), heme oxygenase (HO-1), and also, some of the metabolites (methionine, homocysteine, taurine and vitamin B6) reporting on their activity was investigated using a surgical varicocele model in rats.
