Ba Ji Tian (Morinda officinalis) is an herb commonly used in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) to support male reproductive health, including conditions associated with low testosterone such as reduced libido and sexual dysfunction. The historical use of Ba Ji Tian is well-documented in TCM texts, where it is classified as a yang tonic, believed to invigorate kidney yang and enhance male vitality. While these traditional concepts do not directly translate to modern biomedical understanding of testosterone, they are often interpreted as broadly supporting male hormonal health.

Scientific validation for Ba Ji Tian’s effectiveness in increasing testosterone or treating hypogonadism in humans is limited. Most of the available evidence comes from animal studies, which suggest that extracts from Morinda officinalis may influence serum testosterone levels and improve reproductive organ weights in rats with induced reproductive dysfunction. However, rigorous human clinical trials are lacking, and the mechanisms by which Ba Ji Tian might affect testosterone production remain unclear. Therefore, while there is a strong tradition of use for this purpose, the evidence from modern scientific research is preliminary and not sufficient to confirm efficacy or safety for treating low testosterone in humans.
