Where does sperm go in a man?

Published in Male Reproduction 1 min read

Sperm travels through a specific pathway within the male reproductive system.

Here's a breakdown:

  1. Testicles: Sperm is produced in the testicles.
  2. Epididymis: From the testicles, sperm moves into the epididymis, which is a tube that moves sperm from the testicles, according to the reference. Here, sperm matures and is stored.
  3. Vas Deferens: During ejaculation, sperm travels from the epididymis through the vas deferens. The vas deferens is a tube in which the sperm is stored and it carries the sperm out of the scrotal sac.
  4. Urethra: The vas deferens connects to the urethra, the tube that runs through the penis.
  5. Out of the Body: Finally, sperm exits the body through the urethra during ejaculation.

In summary, sperm travels from the testicles to the epididymis, then via the vas deferens to the urethra, and then out of the body.
