1. MALE + FEMALE REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM Celine Murton Jackie Paiz Emily Hernandez Period 4

2. Female Reproductive System  Two main parts: Uterus Ovaries  Vagina  Clitoris  Fallopian Tube  Cervix  Urethra  Hymen  Labia Majora + Minora

3. Female Reproductive System  Uterus (womb) Home of the fetus Divided into two parts: o Cervix o Corpus  Ovaries Produce eggs and hormones Small oval-shaped glands Located on each side of the uterus

4. Female Reproductive System  Vagina Known as the birth canal Canal that joins the cervix to the outside of the body  Clitoris Two Labia Majora meet Small and sensitive protrusion (comparable to a man’s penis) Covered by prepuce (fold of skin)

5. Female Reproductive System  Fallopian Tube Known as oviducts Narrow tubes that attach to the upper part of the uterus Serves as a tunnel for the ova (egg cell) to travel from the ovaries to the uterus Where conception occurs

6. Female Reproductive System  Cervix Known as the neck of the uterus Cylinder shaped Lower, narrow portion of the uterus where it joins with the top of the vagina Protrudes through the upper anterior vaginal wall  Urethra Its opening is just below the clitoris

7. Female Reproductive System  Hymen A thin fold of mucous membrane Separates the lumen of the vagina from urethral sinus A non-torn hymen is a guarantee of virginity? False

8. Female Reproductive System  Libia Majora Means “large lips” Protects the other external reproductive organs Female version of the scrotum Contains sweat and oil-secreting glands After puberty, it is covered with hair  Libia Minora Means “small lips” Lies inside the labia majora Surrounds the openings to the vagina and urethra

9. Male Reproductive System  Penis  Semen  Scrotum  Testicles (testes)  Epididymis  Vas Deferens  Ejaculatory Ducts  Urethra  Seminal Vesicles  Prostate Glands  Bulbourethral glands

10. Male Reproductive System  Penis Male reproductive organ  Three main parts The root (attached to the wall of the abdomen) The body (the shaft) The glans (cone-shaped end of the penis)  Glans are covered with a loose layer of skin, called the foreskin Removal of the foreskin is called circumcision

11. Male Reproductive System  Penis Three internal chambers o Made up of special, sponge-like erectile tissue (tissue contains thousands of large spaces that fill with blood when the man is sexually aroused) Skin of the penis is loose and elastic to accommodate changes in penis size during an erection

12. Male Reproductive System  Semen Contains sperm (expelled during ejaculation through the end of the penis when the man reaches sexual climax [orgasm]) Flow of urine is blocked when penis is erect, allowing only semen to be ejaculated  Scrotum loose puck-like sac of skin that hangs behind the penis Contains testicles and many blood and nerve endings Protects and acts as a climate control system for the testes

13. Male Reproductive System  Testicles (testes) Oval shaped organs, size of large olives that lie in the scrotum Responsible for making testosterone and sperm  Epididymis Long coiled tube that rests on the backside of each testicle Transports and stores sperm cells that produce in the testes Brings the sperm to maturity

14. Male Reproductive System  Vas Deferens Tube that travels from the epididymis into the pelvic cavity, to just behind the bladder Sperm is transported here to the urethra in preparation for ejaculation  Ejaculatory Ducts Vas deferens and the seminal vesicles, fused Ducts empty into the urethra

15. Male Reproductive System  Urethra Carries urine to the outside of the body Ejaculates semen  Seminal Vesicles Sac-like pouch that is attached to the vas deferens near the base of the bladder  Prostate Glands Walnut-sized structure that is located below the urinary bladder in the form of the rectum contributes additional fluid to the ejaculate

16. Male Reproductive System  Bulbourethral glands Located on the sides of the urethra, just below the prostate gland Pea-sized structure, also called the Cowper’s gland Produce a clear, slippery fluid that empties directly into the urethra Fluid serves to lubricate the urethra and to neutralize any acidity that may be present due to residual drops of urine in the urethra.

17. M+F Reproductive Disease  Cervical Cancer Cancer in the cervix Develops on surface of the cervix 3 rd most common cancer in women 100% treatable if found in time Develops slowly (over years) Pap Smear tests are done annually Almost always caused by HPV

18. M+F Reproductive Disease  Testicular Cancer Begins in the testicles Curable if caught in time, but it can be a very lengthy process before total recovery Different stages: o Stage I: cancer has not spread beyond the testicle o Stage II: cancer has spread to lymph nodes in the abdomen o Stage III: cancer has spread beyond the lymph nodes

19. M+F Reproductive Disease  Chlamydia Most common STD in United States 1 in 4 men show no symptoms 30% of woman show symptoms Curable with antibiotics

20. Female Reproductive Doctor  Obstetrics & Gynecologist Two separate surgical-medical specialties Deal with the female reproductive organ in the non-pregnant and pregnant state These specialties are so alike, they are often combined to form a single medical specialty, called (ObGyn).

21. Male Reproductive Doctor  Andrologist Physician-scientist concentrates for clinical or laboratory evaluations of the male fertility and medical and surgical management of all the aspects of the male reproductive health Found in fertility treatment centers working with in vitro fertilization  Urologist Deals with two different parts of the male: o Urinary tract o Male reproductive system Specializes in male anatomy, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of genitourinary disorders
