4. Body PartFunction TesticlesStore sperm and produce testosterone Vas DeferensMuscular tube that transports semen EpididymisThe set of coiled tubes connected to the Vas Deferens ScrotumHelps to regulate temperature in order to produce and store sperm Seminal Vesicles Produce a sugar-rich fluid (fructose) that provides sperm with a source of energy and helps with the sperms’ motility. The fluid of the seminal vesicles makes up most of the volume of a man’s ejaculatory fluid, or ejaculate. Prostate GlandContributes additional fluid to the ejaculate. Prostate fluids also help to nourish the sperm.

6.  An Erection starts in the brain, when a male is stimulated physically or mentally.  Brain then sends a chemical message to the nerves in the penis which tell the penile blood vessels to relax which allow blood flow into the penis. Once this happens the penis expands allowing an erection.  Erections go away on their own or after ejaculation.  Ejaculation is the release of semen at climax.  Males during adolescence may have a number of erections daily (even without stimulation)  Nocturnal emissions- happens during puberty at night when testosterone levels are high. A male will ejaculate during sleep. Males usually grow out of it after puberty.

If this happens seek medical attention immediately.  Testicular Rupture-testicle receives a forceful direct blow or when the testicle is crushed against the pubic bone, causing blood to leak into the scrotum.  Treatment- Surgery, or doctor can manually untwist testicles.  Symptoms- Extreme pain, swelling, nausea and vomiting.  Prevention- athletic supporter, cup

Risk Factors- White males, family history, males who are infected with HIV Symptoms- Discomfort/pain in testicles, swelling of the scrotum, lump in testicle, pain in lower back and may develop breast tissue. Test- physical examination feeling a lump, blood test and then an ultrasound of scrotum Treatment - Surgical removal, radiation, chemotherapy Expectation- Early stage of cancer 95% survival rate Prevention- Routine testicular exam, call health care provider if you have symptoms Support- Lance Armstrong www.laf.org, www.cancer.govwww.laf.orgwww.cancer.gov
