Presentation Transcript

  1. Reproductive Systems Male

  2. Major Structures: • Testes • Scrotum • Penis • Epididymis • Vas Deferens (Ductus Deferens) • Seminal Vesicles • Prostate Gland • Bulbourethral Glands (Cowper’s Glands) • Uretha Male

  3. Provide Sperm Cells Fertilize the Ovum Perpetuating the Species Male Reproductive System Overall Functions

  4. Diagram of Male System

  5. The Testes promote growth development and maintence of the male sexual organs. The Reproductive System Interacts with the Endocrine System to drive maturation and maintain sexual functions. The Reproductive system interacts with the Nervous System in response to sexual stimuli. How Does This System Work With Other Systems

  6. Scrotum: Houses the testes and connecting tubes. Brings the testes closer to the perineum through contractile action to absorb sufficient body heat to maintain the viability of the spermatoza.  Structures of the Male Reproductive System

  7. Penis: Acts as a male organ of compilation, site of the orifice for the element of semen and urine from the body. Structures of the Male Reproductive System

  8. Testes: Provide the male sex hormone. They contain seminiferous tubules that are the site of the development of spermatoza. Structures of the Male Reproductive System

  9. Epididymus: Function as the storage site for the maturation of sperm. Structures of the Male Reproductive System

  10. Vas  Deferens: contains the spermatic cord that also contains arteries, veins, lymphatic vessels, and nerves. Structures of the Male Reproductive System

  11. Seminial Vesicles: Produces a slightly alakine fluid that becomes a part of the seminal fluid or semen. Structures of the Male Reproductive System

  12. Prostate Gland: Secretes a fluid that aids in maintaing the viability in sperm. Structures of the Male Reproductive System

  13. Bulbourethral Gland: Produces a mucous secretion before ejaculation which becomes apart of the semen. Structures of the Male Reproductive System

  14. Urethra: Tranmits urine and semen out of the body. Structures of the Male Reproductive Sytem

  15. Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) - BPH is also known as Benign Enlargement of the Prostate (BEP), is involved in the increase in size of the prostate. The prostate cells (stromal & epithelial) start the process hyperplasia, which results in the formation of large nodules in the periurethral location of the prostate. This can cause urinary tract obstruction. Disorders of the Male Reproductive System

  16. Erectile Dysfunction - An erection problem is when a man cannot get or keep an erection that is firm enough to have intercourse. You may be unable to get an erection at all. Or, you may lose the erection during intercourse before you are ready.  Disorders of the Male Reproductive System

  17. Prostrate Cancer: Prostate cancer is cancer that starts in the prostate gland. The prostate is a small, walnut-sized structure that makes up part of a man's reproductive system. It wraps around the urethra, the tube that carries urine out of the body Disorders of the Male Reproductive System

  18. Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) : infections that can be transmitted through sexual contact with an infected individual. EX: genital warts, herpes, crabs Disorders of the Male Reproductive System

  19. Vasectomy/Sterilization: . the surgical cutting and sealing of part of each vas deferens, typically as a means of sterilization. Fun Fact of the Male Reproductive System

  20. Priapism: Priapism is a persistent, often painful erection lasting more than 4 hours in duration. The priapism erection is not associated with sexual activity and is not relieved by orgasm. It occurs when blood flows into the penis but is not adequately drained. Disorders of the Male Reproductive System
