Impotence and Testicular Functions
The organs of the male reproductive system are specialized for the following functions:
- To produce, maintain and transport sperm (the male reproductive cells) and protective fluid (semen)
- To discharge sperm within the female reproductive tract
- To produce and secrete male sex hormones
The male reproductive anatomy includes internal and external structures.
What are the external reproductive structures?
