Phoenix dactylifera, commonly known as the date palm, has been cultivated for thousands of years and is known for its nutritional and medicinal properties. The fruit of this palm is rich in essential nutrients such as vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants (Haddad et al., 2019). In traditional medicine, P. dactylifera has been utilized for various health conditions, including reproductive disorders. Recent studies have highlighted its potential effects on reproductive health, particularly in male mammals, suggesting that date palm fruit may influence reproductive organ health and hormonal profiles (Ibrahim et al., 2020).

The reproductive system of male Wistar rats serves as a valuable model for studying human reproductive health due to the physiological similarities between these animals and humans. Research has indicated that certain dietary components can significantly affect male reproductive functions, including sperm production, hormone levels, and the overall health of reproductive organs (Mohammed et al., 2021). The consumption of natural products like P. dactylifera could thus play a role in enhancing or impairing these functions.

Scientific evidence suggests that P. dactylifera contains phytoestrogens, which may mimic estrogen's effects in the body, potentially leading to alterations in hormonal profiles and reproductive health (Ali et al., 2018). Furthermore, the fruit is also known to exhibit antioxidant properties that can protect reproductive tissues from oxidative stress, a significant factor in infertility and other reproductive health issues (Alghamdi et al., 2021).

Given the growing interest in natural products and their effects on reproductive health, it is imperative to explore the specific impacts of P. dactylifera on male Wistar rats. This study aims to investigate how the consumption of this fruit affects reproductive organs and hormonal profiles, which could provide insights into potential health benefits or risks associated with its consumption.

1.2 Statement of the Problem

Despite the traditional use of P. dactylifera in enhancing reproductive health, there is limited scientific evidence regarding its effects on male reproductive organs and hormonal profiles. The lack of comprehensive studies examining the direct impact of date palm consumption on male Wistar rats raises concerns about the efficacy and safety of this natural product. Understanding these effects is crucial for determining whether P. dactylifera could be
