Abstract

The effect of herbicide glyphosate on reproductive hormone of male Albino rat. The animals were exposed on acute exposure of the glyphosate for the present study. The Testosterone, FSH, and LH hormone level get decline with respect to normal. The main reason for the negative effect of these hormones on the testes' histological structure which is damaged due to glyphosate and consequently affects the Leydig or interstitial cells' number and function. So, it is concluded that herbicide glyphosate either in low or high concentration have very toxic effect on reproductive hormones.
