Journal Title: International Journal of Medical and Clinical Research - Year 2011, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
Stress affects people of all ages and in all walks of life. Children at play, students preparing for an examination or workers on the job are all subject to stress. The present study was performed on 20 Adult male albino rats, out of which 10 served as control and 10 were exposed to immobilization stress. After 45 days the histological study showed that the stress has inhibitory effect on the epididymis. The degenerative histological findings are found in form of reduce number of spermatozoa, debris of cell mass & reduce epithelial cells height. These changes may cause infertility. The aim of present study was to establish the fact that stress is one of the causes of infertility.
