The present research was designed to demonstrate the effectiveness of twodifferent levels of Ground Olive leaves (5% and 10 %) in diet on levels of reproductivehormones like Testosterone , Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) and LuteinizingHormone (LH) in male rabbits, twenty one male rabbits with body weight average 1-1.4 Kg and 4.5-5 months age have been bought from the local markets and theydivided randomly to three similar groups and fed on concentrate pellets diets withgreen roughage , the male Rabbits have been divided in 7 animals /group with equalweights. The 1st group (T1) control group was offered tap water and fed concentratepellets without ground olive leaves , The 2nd one (T2)(5% Ground Olive leaves / diet)offered tap water and fed concentrate pellets with 5% Ground Olive leaves /diet , whilethe 3rd one(T3)(10% ground Olive leaves)offered tap water and fed concentrate pelletswith 10% ground olive leaves /diet and the nutrition were been continuedalong 8weeks . In this study we measured the role of use ground Olive leaves in rabbits malediet on levels of hormones like testosterone, FSH,LH in blood along the period ofexperiment.The results showed decrease in Testosterone level in serum significantly(P<0.05) while a significant increase (P<0.05)in LH level occur and there is accountdifferences in FSH level that produced from pituitary gland.We concluded that the useof ground Olive leaves have impact on fertility of rabbits males throughit'sdisruption in biosynthesis or intervention with production of hormones in genital system of Rabbitsmale.
