Abstract

Introduction: In Vietnam, Cordyceps militaris is a valuable medicinal herb with many applications in disease prevention, treatment, and improvement of human health. Methods: The study was conducted on a hypogonadal white mouse model, and the testosterone and 17β-estradiol levels were determined by ELISA technique according to the kit procedure provided by Abcam. Results: In rats with hypogonadism, Hector Ginseng Cordyceps Water (11.76-23.52mL/kg body weight) and 100% Hector Cordyceps Capsule (58.8-117.6 mg powdered) /kg body weight) has the effect of increasing the concentration of testosterone (2.37-2.87 ng/mL) and 17β-estradiol (24.28-32.32 pg/mL) close to the corresponding physiological control (3. .87 ng/mL and 41.25 pg/mL) without affecting normal mice. Conclusion: Both products can be used to improve sexual function in men and women.
