At the end of the experimental period (90 days), animal blood was collected retro-orbitally to analyze the cortisol, Brain tissue was homogenized, and antioxidants and Acetylcholine esterase level was estimated. &lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The Results of the data indicated that administering stress for a duration of 90 days led to a noticeable decline in spatial learning abilities in mice. Our findings indicate that combination of Abelmoschus esculentus and diazepam showed there was an significant improvement in retaining memory. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;Study indicated that Abelmoschus esculentus shows promise as a viable treatment option for conditions of stress related memory impairment.&lt;/p&gt;
