maleThe purpose of the male reproductive system is to 1) enable the man to have sexual intercourse and 2) to fertilize the female eggs with sperm. Sperm as well as the male sex hormones, are produced by the testes which are paired glands contained in the scrotum. The testes produce sperm as well as hormones called androgens. Some of the male sexual organs are visible and some are hidden.

    The testes, or testicles, are the male gonads. They contain germ cells that differentiate into mature spermatozoa, supporting cells called Sertoli cells, and testosterone-producing cells called the Leydig cells.
