In this talk, the focus is Reproductive System - Male, supported by coverage of the structure and functions of the main male reproductive organs, including the testes, epididymis, vas deferens, seminal vesicles, prostate gland, and penis. We will explain the role of testosterone and the hormonal and anatomical integration necessary for male fertility. The process of semen production, ejaculation, and the pathways involved will be outlined. Finally, we will discuss common male reproductive health disorders and the importance of maintaining reproductive health through prevention and early intervention.. The male reproductive system includes organs that produce, store, and deliver sperm, and secrete hormones vital for male sexual development. Key structures are the testes, epididymis, vas deferens, seminal vesicles, prostate gland, and penis. The testes produce sperm and testosterone; the epididymis and vas deferens transport and store sperm; the prostate and seminal vesicles add fluids to semen; and the penis delivers semen during intercourse. A thorough understanding of these organs and their functions provides important insights into male fertility and reproductive health. Let’s look at the structure and function of the main male reproductive organs. The testes, located in the scrotum, are paired glands that produce sperm and secrete testosterone, the main male sex hormone. Sperm leaving the testes enter the epididymis, where they mature and are stored.
