Shilajit for Testosterone Support

Research suggests that shilajit may support testosterone levels in men, with two small studies both reporting increases in testosterone alongside improvements in related markers such as sperm quality, physical performance, and inflammatory indicators. The available evidence consists of one small randomized controlled trial focused on infertile men and one open-label pilot study in healthy active men, both of which showed results directionally favoring shilajit supplementation. However, the evidence base is notably limited — the studies are few in number, involve small participant groups, and neither included a placebo control group robust enough to rule out confounding factors such as the placebo effect. Larger, well-designed randomized controlled trials are needed before firm conclusions can be drawn about shilajit's role in testosterone support.
