The rats were declared to have diabetic with fasting blood glucose level &amp;gt; 200 mg/dl 72 hours after induction. Diabetic rat samples were divided into four groups, control group (diabetes without treatment) and three groups were treated by &lt;em&gt;Aloe vera&lt;/em&gt; peel extracts orally: 100 mg (P.1), 200 mg (P.2), and 400 mg/kg body weight (P.3), respectively. Antioxidant levels of serum and seminal plasma, including superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and glutathione (GSH) were examined after 28 days of treatment. &lt;strong&gt;Results:&lt;/strong&gt; The levels of SOD, CAT, and GSH in the group receiving &lt;em&gt;Aloe vera &lt;/em&gt;peel extract were statistically significant (p &amp;lt;0.05) higher than the control. There were also significant differences between the dose variations group.&lt;strong&gt; Conclusion:&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Aloe vera&lt;/em&gt; peel extract can significantly increase antioxidant levels in serum and seminal plasma of type 2 diabetic mice.&lt;/p&gt;
