Debatable: I find references suggesting increase in male fertility but possibly decreasing ovulation in women. inserted vaginally, the active chemical in tumeric is apparently toxic to sperm and may decrease fertility. Since this is an herbal method, it is hard to find controlled studies that are usually needed to confirm scientific findings.
