Introduction: Diabetes Mellitus is an important metabolic disorder with numerous complications that affects all body systems and has destructive effects on the function of reproductive and sexual organs. Considering the ant-diabetic effects of medicinal plants, the effect of chamomile (Matricaria recutita L.) powder consumption on reproductive organ damage caused by streptozotocin-induced diabetes was investigated. Methods: Twenty-four male rats were randomly divided into four groups. 1-Normal group (N), 2-Normal group + chamomile powder (N+Ch), 3-Diabetic group (D), diabetes was induced by intraperitoneal injection of 60 mg/kg streptozotocin.and 4-Diabetic group + chamomile powder (D+Ch). Groups N+Ch and D+Ch received chamomile powder, 350 mg/kg for two weeks, and then the changes in the weight of the reproductive organs were investigated. Result: The weight of the testis, seminal vesicle, and prostate in the D group showed a significant decrease compared to group N showed. Also, the results showed a decrease in the weight of vasodferon and epididymis in group D compared to group N, but these changes was not significant. Consumption of chamomile powder in the D+Ch group caused the changes to return to the N group and prevented the weight loss of the reproductive organs. Conclusion: Chamomile powder has a therapeutic effect on weight loss of reproductive organs caused by diabetes. Keyword: Diabetes Mellitus, Reproductive organs, Chamomile, Male rat
