1. A method for favoring normal reproduction and fertility or for increasing efficacy of an assisted reproductive technique in a non-diabetic female mammal, said method comprising administering to said mammal tungsten (VI) salt, or a solvate thereof;

wherein said salt is administered at a daily dose of between 0.001 mg and 1000 mg of the tungsten (VI) salt per kg of body weight of the mammal;

wherein said mammal is not infertile,
