PENIS ANTOMY
Penis:
- This is the male organ of coitus or intercourse
or the act for reproductivity. It is made of three bodies &
covered with skin. It varies in size from person to person. It's
normal length when in flaccid condition is 7cm to 12cms and 12
CMS to 21 CMS when erect. The circumference ranges from 7.5 to
10.5 CMS in flaccid condition and in erection it is about 8.5
CMS to 12 CMS.
Glans:
- The tip of the penis is known as glans.
It is an expansion of the corpus spongionsum. The base of the
glans, projects out from the main body of the penis and this projecting
margin is called corona.
Prostate: - This gland appears to be a
sexual organ, since in animals that have seasonal sexuality, the
prostate enlarges during the mating season and then shrinks until
the nest. In the adults human male, it is about 4 CMS, across
as its base and is the size of a chestnut. The prostate is composed
of muscular & glandular tissue. It's secretions pass down
about 20 small ducts, which lead to the section of the urethra
that, pierces the prostate gland, but their purpose is not yet
fully understood.
Semen: - This is the mixture of secretions
from the prostate seminal vesicle & spermatozoa from the testes.
When a man reaches climay, semen starts coming out of the penis
with pressure. Each time in two days about 2 to 6 ml semen comes
out when man reaches orgasm this is the elixir of reproductivity
and semen contains sperms.
Smegma: -
Smegma is a mixture of dead skin cells and skin grease. This looks
like soap flakes as it hides under the foreskin of the penis.
In woman it is found near clitoris. The presence of it denotes
the poor standards of person's hygiene, and it can contribute
in transmitting disease.
Scrotum or scrotalsac: -
This is the sack behind the penis scrotum is part of the male
genitals this is thin walled soft muscular pouch underneath the
penis containing two compartment to hold the testicles which manufacture
a man's sex cells called sperm and the male sex hormone called
testosterone. The testicles feel solid but a little spongy like
hard boiled eggs without the shell. They hang (connected) to a
cord called the spermatic cold that consists of blood vessels
tubes nerve & muscle fibers. Under certain conditions such
as exercise, exposure to cold and sexual arousal in particular
the muscle fibers in the scrotum cause the entire sac to contract
& wrinkle up drawing a the testicles closer to the body. In
response to heat or total relaxation the scrotum becomes very
loose & soft with a smooth surface and the relaxed muscle
fiber cause the testicles to hang farther from the body.
These changes in the scrotum illustrate the primary function
of the scrotum, which is to act as a natural climate control center
for the testicles. The temperature in the scrotum is a degree
or two lower than the usual body temperature. The testicles need
this lower temperature in order to carry out their job of producing
viable sperm. If the testicles are kept at body temperature or
higher for a prolonged period infertility or sterility can result.
The scrotum continually monitors the environment for temperature
changes & responds automatically in the way that is best for
the production of healthy sperm.
A male's scrotum is very sensitive to touch and
can be a source of sensual pleasure. Some man enjoys having their
scrotum stroked & fondled during sexual activity with their
partner. A little massaging of scrotum from underneath, cupping
the testicles in the palm of the hand is often sensually pleasing
to a male. Some men report that they have learned to delay an
impending ejaculation generally pulling down on their testicles.
This is one technique used in Tantric intercourse to prolong the
sexual experience.

Testicles:
-
The testicles found inside the scrotum pouch, the pouch is divided
into two smaller pouches each containing one testicle with its
epididymis. An epididymis is connected to the testicle and over
lies it like a cap. It contains a very large amount of microscopically
small tubes. The testicles manufacture a man's sex cells called
sperm and the male sex hormone called testosterone. The testicles
feel solid but a little spongy like hard boiled eggs without the
shell. They hang from cord called the spermatic-cord. The testicles
produce sperm best when they are at a temperature which is a few
degrees below the normal body temperature, that is why nature
has designed a scrotum so that the testes can hang outside the
body to keep them cool. The testicles start producing sperm when
a young man reaches puberty. The sperm is stored in epididymis.
From the epididymis the vas deferens will conduct the `freshly
made sperm cell to the area of the prostate. The vas deferens
runs together with blood vessels that supply blood to and from
the testicles & some muscle fiber; as a sort of long thin
sausage they perforate the abdominal wall at the groin. Since
from the standpoint of the abdomen the testicles are located outside
the body there must be a tiny hole in the abdomen wall there to
let the vas deferens in early or later life a hernia may from
at this weak spot. Right behind the prostate the vas deferens
joins the outlets of the seminal vesicles to be able to leave
the body through the urethra as semen in search of a female egg
cell.
Like
so many other organs in our body the testicles has its identical
counter part, the left and right testicles. The testicles both
have exactly the same function. Unlike what some people think
nothing is held in reserve; both testicles are active although,
in normal circumstances one testicles is sufficient.
The sperm: -
The sperm are produced inside several hundred coiled microscopic
tubules called somniferous tubules present in the testes. These
tubules converge & collect in the form of a delta (the river
mouth) near the upper part of the testis called the rete testis,
which then empties through a series of very small ducts called
the efferent ducts, out of the testis toward the epididymis is
an amazing structure. It is a very long tiny tubule which runs
back & forth in convolutions & loops to form tiny compact
structure with a head body & tail that its like a cap on the
top of & behind the testicles. Somniferous tubules produce
sperm constantly maturing & nourishing each one for some forty
five days in sertoli or nurse cells attached to the tubule's lining.
They are then released into the epididymis the duct where they
are matured & stored until needed. Sperm are produced constantly
throughout the man's adult life. How ever if ejaculation occurs
more than once or twice day it can take five to seven days to
replenish the supplies which generally provide 200 to 400 million
sperm for each ejaculation.
Testosterone:
-
Testosterone is the main male hormone
produced mostly in the testes. A hormone is a substance a molecule
that acts as a messenger in the blood since the blood flows through
the entire body the hormone in it will also reach every spot in
the body. Some organs that are susceptible to the hormone will
then be told to do something testosterone will cause a boy to
change into a man. Testosterone stimulates the development of
the male secondary sex characteristics at puberty causing growth
of beard & pubic hair development of the penis and the change
of voice. He will be able to have erections & will develop
feelings of male lust. The hormone also aids in the growth &
muscular development of the adult male. If little or no testosterone
production occurs before puberty secondary sexual characteristics
fail to develop.
The testicles found inside the scrotum pouch,
the pouch is divided into two smaller pouches each containing
one testicle with its epididymis. An epididymis is connected to
