Fish oil supplement for sperm quality
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study tests whether a special fish oil supplement (EPAX EVOLVE 05) can improve sperm movement in men with low sperm motility. It may help if you have been told your sperm are not moving well and you are willing to take a sperm test.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
