Today's parents understand that the genitals of boys and girls should be called by their names from a very early age and tell the child in time why it is arranged this way and not otherwise.. But sometimes parents lack confidence, and sometimes lack knowledge.. We offer a brief excursion into the male reproductive system in order to prepare for a conversation with a son, according to Pannochka, an online publication for girls and women from 14 to 35 years old.. net The male reproductive (genital) system consists of: testicles, epididymis, vas deferens, seminal vesicle, prostate gland, scrotum, penis.

The external male genital organs include the scrotum and penis..

The scrotum is the skin, fleshy fascia, a layer of connective tissue with smooth muscle fibers.. The function of the scrotum is mainly protective. The scrotum is actually a protrusion of the front wall of the abdomen.. But unlike the abdominal wall, there are no fatty membranes in the scrotum, which allows it to create the necessary temperature regime for the testicles - lower than in the abdominal cavity..

Overheating is not good for the testicles. For sperm production, the temperature of the testicles must be slightly lower than the general core temperature of the body.. That is why such rather vulnerable and inherently internal organs - the testicles - are located outside the pelvic cavity..

The penis is made up of cavernous bodies and spongy tissue.. Cavernous bodies fill with blood during sexual arousal, causing an erection. The spongy body serves as a " The vas deferens also opens into the urethra. The penis (penis) has a base and a head. There is also some “excess” of skin - the foreskin, which normally completely covers the head and the crown of the head.

Quite often, little boys have problems opening their heads - you must have heard the word \? Therefore, in some cultures, for example, among Orthodox Jews and Muslims, there is circumcision - the removal of the foreskin of boys from birth to 10 years old.. This religious (and, in fact, cultural) tradition developed among these peoples in connection with the conditions of their existence, primarily climatic.

Jews are more practical - and therefore the foreskin is removed after birth. For decades and in the United States, the removal of the foreskin shortly after birth was a routine practice.. There was nothing wrong with it. As for the boys themselves - minus the risk factor for the development of phimosis and much more formidable paraphimosis. So in the future for their women, t. smegma - the secret of the glands of the inner surface of the foreskin - has carcinogenic properties. Yes, and the sensitivity of the head of the "

But in general, this is a purely individual matter.. One thing can be said to the mothers of boys: if there has already been an episode of phimosis, it is better to “cut without waiting...”. This is a very well-established, fairly simple operation.. Entire nations of men live without foreskin and feel great.

The internal structures and organs of the male reproductive system are located in the pelvic cavity (except for the testicles).

The testicles are a pair of organs located in the scrotum.. The testicles are dense, movable, oval-shaped structures.. Suspended on the spermatic cord.

Muscle fibers within the spermatic cord and scrotal wall help regulate temperature by pulling the testicles up "

By the way, moms and dads, wearing tight and tight underpants is harmful.! What for the boys, what, sorry, for dads. " Because the scrotum and spermatic cord no longer have power over your testicles wrapped in tight shorts!

Sperm is produced and stored in the testicles. The testicles also produce the “male” hormone testosterone..

epididymis. Each epididymis is a dense, comma-shaped structure attached to the apex of the testicle and running along its posterior surface.. The appendage is a highly convoluted tubular structure with a length of... about six meters! The tail of the appendage is connected to the vas deferens. It is in the epididymis that spermatozoa mature.. Only after passing these not weak “about six meters” (and given the size of the sperm, this is much more than a person walking along the equator), they are functionally ripe for attacking the egg.

Seminal vesicles are additional glands of the male reproductive system and produce a thick sugary environment with an alkaline reaction - the basis of the seminal fluid.. Each seminal vesicle is an elongated structure, similar to a microscopic little finger.. They are behind the bladder, in front of the rectum.. Every two bubbles are connected in a V-shape.

The vas deferens is the duct that carries sperm from the epididymis to the prostate gland..

The prostate gland is a very important structure of the male reproductive system.. It produces an enzyme-rich fluid and about a third of the volume of seminal fluid (seminal fluid is not only semen, of course).

The prostate gland is also anatomically and structurally inextricably linked with the bladder and urethra: it is located at the base of the bladder and surrounds the urethra. Therefore, hypertrophy (growth of tissues) of the prostate gland is a very formidable condition not only for potency, but also for the urinary system.. And men over 40 should have their prostate checked regularly..

Approximate dynamics of puberty in boys 9–10 years old. The boy has infantile proportions, they “ripen” more slowly than girls.

10–11 years old. Beginning of testicular and penis growth.

12–13 years old. Pubic hair.

13–14 years old. Rapid growth of the testicles and penis, slight swelling of the mammary glands (this is normal, do not be afraid).

14–15 years old. Hairiness of the armpits, fluff on the upper lip, the voice becomes low (“breaking” of the voice).

15–16 years old. Nocturnal emission with mature sperm (on average by 15 years; normal variation: 11–17 years; respectively, and the “age of masturbation” - in masturbation, by the way, there is nothing to worry about either, this is normal, unless, of course, you do it from morning to night. ) 16–17 years old. Resorption of seals in the mammary glands (if any), increased facial hair growth, the beginning of body hair, acne.

17–19 years old. Stopping the growth of the skeleton. (Your boy has grown. Finally stop serving him breakfast in bed and doing homework with him.! ) These data are averaged. The average version of the norm. Small deviations in age plus or minus are quite possible.
