After the end of the experiment the animals were sacrificed after taken their body weights. The results were show: 1. A significant(p<0.05) increase in body weight and reproductive organs. 2 .A significant(p<0.05)increase in percentages of sperm motility, percentages of live sperms.and showA significant(p<0.05)decrease in percentages of sperm abnormalities.3.
