Green tea is tea made from Camellia sinensis leaves and buds. It contains of different minerals and natural anti-oxidants such as Polyphenols (Catechins etc.). The beneficial effects of green tea and its major bioactive component, (−)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), on health is significant. This review summarizes on the beneficial effects of green tea catechins on selected female reproductive disorders and infertility in males. Green tea or its derivative, EGCG, improves endometriosis mainly through anti-angiogenic, anti-fibrotic, anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic mechanisms. Moreover, green tea enhances ovulation and reduces cyst formation in PCOS and reduces plasma corticosterone levels and uterine contractility in dysmenorrhea. GrTPs (green tea polyphenols) have antioxidant properties that improve major semen parameters, such as sperm concentration, motility, morphology, DNA damage, fertility rate, and gamete quality improving fertility. Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among men. In this review, current knowledge is presented regarding the antioxidant, anti angiogenic, antifibrotic effects of green tea extracts in the prevention and treatment of reproductive disorders, with particular focus on the molecular mechanisms of action, such as influencing tumour growth, apoptosis, androgen receptor signalling, cell cycle and various malignant behaviours.
