THE PROBLEM AND REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES
Introduction
Everyone is naturally pre-determined to have an offspring. This would just exist in a relationship of a man and woman. It is not always true in a relationship if there is a new life that will be formed. Several factors may contribute to the hindrances in the formation of new life especially to man because male (sperm) gamete is the one responsible to initiate fertilization, the union of male (sperm) and female (ovum) gametes. These may include low sperm counts, poor sperm quality, anatomical problems and hormonal imbalances. These factors were also described under male infertility which leads to inability to produce offspring. Pre-fabricated drugs to treat this are readily available in the market, but it is associated with some undesirable effects.
Talahib (Saccharum spontaneum) is one of the most abundant plants found in the Philippines especially in open areas. The different parts of talahib are pharmaceutically used as diuretic, poultice, purgative, astringent and emollient. It is also found to be an aphrodisiac that has an effect to arouse sexual desire which may resemble to boost fertility. The researchers aim to prove the effectiveness of ethanolic extract of talahib on spermatocyte proliferation in male rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus). The leaves of talahib will be used in this experiment. The researchers will also conduct phytochemical screening for the determination of the different chemical constituents present in the talahib leaves.
Thus, if the ethanolic extract of talahib leaves will be proven effective, it would be beneficial to those couple who desires to have an offspring most especially to male which is the focused of this study on spermatocyte proliferation.
