Does Saaz In The Long Run Cause Infertility In A Man?

Hi, I am on Saaz 1000 mg dose on daily basis 1 tablet. I am consuming the same from almost last 2 years continously. Currently I am married & trying to become a father which is not happening from last 7 to 8 months. My doctor advised me to do Semen Analysis test which I did & result came positive. My sperm count, motility & morphology is very bad as compared to normal range. Doctor told it is because of regular consuming of Saaz 100mg, kindly suggest if this is the case.
