Table 2.
Comparison of statistical analysis of examined variables (sperm number, sperm morphology, TAC, MDA concentration, sperm motility, apoptosis) among the three groups.

| Variable | P-value Between Groups | ||
| Control & Untreated Groups | Treated & Untreated Groups | Control & Treated Groups | |
| Number of sperm | 0.0001 | 0.026 | 0.048 |
| Normal Morphology | 0.0001 | 0.091 | 0.0001 |
| Abnormal Morphology | 0.0001 | 0.102 | 0.0001 |
| TAC* | 0.041 | 0.007 | 1 |
| MDA* | 1 | 0.08 | 0.11 |
| Slow | 0.047 | 1 | 0.016 |
| Quick | 0.0001 | 0.005 | 0.069 |
| Immutile | 0.0001 | 0.024 | 0.026 |
