It has been estimated that up to one-third of patients with diabetes mellitus use some form of complementary and alternative medicine.

In fact, uncontrolled diabetes mellitus is frequently linked with sexual and reproductive dysfunctions in malehumans and experimental animals in the form ofsterility, erectile dysfunction, reduced libido, semen alterations due to decreased serum androgen levels and impairment of spermatogenesis. This study was designed to evaluate the potential protective/ameliorative effect of bitter melon extract administration on testicular damage induced by experimental diabetes in rats
