The control group giving streptozotocin induction at dosage 40 mg/kg bw rats intra-peritoneally. The treatment group was a group of rats DM treated with ethanol extract of Karamunting leaf at dosage 100 mg/kg bw, 200 mg/kg bw, and 400 mg/kg bw. The treatment in the research group was carried out for 14 days. On day 15, blood was taken to measure testosterone levels by the ELISA method and glucose blood. The data were analysed with Kolmogorov Smirnov and Mann Whitney. Testosterone levels increased with administration of ethanol extract Karamunting leaves at dose 100 mg/kg bw (16.58 ± 2.8) and 400 mg/kg bw (16.17 ± 2.07) when compared with the control group (14.56 ± 0.8).
