Objective: To investigate the impact of graded doses of ginger extract on male sexual maturation, focusing on hormonal profiles, reproductive organ weights, and sperm characteristics in prepubertal mice. Method: Male mice (21–28 days old) were randomly assigned to four groups receiving 0 (control), 100, 200, or 400 mg/kg ginger extract orally for 28 days. Serum testosterone, luteinizing hormone (LH), and prolactin (PRL) were measured, and reproductive organ weights and sperm parameters were evaluated. Results: Ginger supplementation significantly increased testosterone, LH, and PRL in a dose dependent manner. Reproductive organ weights (testes, epididymis, prostate) and sperm quality indices (count, motility, viability) also improved significantly in treated groups compared with controls. Novelty: Ginger extract significantly enhances male reproductive development and function in mice, likely through endocrine stimulation and improved sperm physiology, supporting its potential use as a natural reproductive enhancer
