Infertility is one of the causes of reproductive welfare disorders of married couples around the world. One of the causes of infertility at the molecular level is Oxidative Stress (OS) because the products of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS), both endogenous and exogenous, exceed the levels of antioxidants in the body. The aims of this review is to find out the potential of traditional medicinal from Bali, Indonesia with local name Kelor (Moringa oleifera) leaves in preventing the occurrence of potential infertility in men based on the results of research in vivo using animal trials. The method used by the writer is a literature study.The results of this literature review found that kelor/moringa had a positive effect on sexual behavior, especially an increase in libido. In addition, it has a positive effect on spermatogenesis, the quality of spermatozoa especially increases sperm motility, sperm count/volume, germ cell count, renews endogenous antioxidant enzyme activity, reduces levels of ROS, and provides a protective effect on the testes from damage. Moringa oleifera contains many free radical blocking molecules. Some phytochemical test results show that moringa contains powerful antioxidants, including alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, triterpenoids/steroids, tannins.
