Maca Stress Randomized TrialIn general, risk of bias in selective reporting and incomplete data were low, and bias regarding inclusion of intention-to-treat analysis was low to moderate.1Ho Chao-Yen (2026)Herbal dietary supplements for erectile dysfunction: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized-controlled trials
Maca Stress Randomized TrialThe analysis revealed a pooled SMD (pSMD) = 1.20 (95 % confidence interval [CI]: 0.64 to 1.76), indicating that taking herbal dietary supplements was associated with a greater improvement in erectile function as compared to controls.1Ho Chao-Yen (2026)Herbal dietary supplements for erectile dysfunction: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized-controlled trials
Maca Stress Randomized TrialSaffron (pSMD = 2.23, 95 % CI: 1.66 to 2.80) and ginseng (pSMD = 0.41, 95 % CI: 0.20 to 0.62) were each significantly associated with greater improvement in ED compared to that of controls, whereaswas shown to have positive effects on ED compared to controls, but the difference was not statistically significant (pSMD = 0.74, 95 % CI: −0.24 to 1.72).1Ho Chao-Yen (2026)Herbal dietary supplements for erectile dysfunction: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized-controlled trials
Maca Stress Randomized TrialIncidence of ED is reported to increase with increasing age.An estimated 8.3 % of insured men in the United States have been diagnosed with ED, translating to approximately 10.3 million men seeking care for this condition as of 2022.1Ho Chao-Yen (2026)Herbal dietary supplements for erectile dysfunction: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized-controlled trials
