Prostate cancer affects only men and it involves abnormal growths in the prostate. The prostate is an important part of the male reproductive system as it is a small walnut-sized shape organ gland that nourishes and transports the sperm to the eggs for fertilization. When prostate cancer occurs, it leads to painful urination, blood in the Urine and semen, and as a result unhealthy sperm and infertility. It is common in old people.

<h3>What is Endometriosis?</h3>

Endometriosis affects women and involves the external growth of tissues that are meant to line the uterus. This external growth affects the ovaries and Fallopian tube and prevents the eggs from fertilization and to an extent implantation of the zygote into the uterus.

Endometriosis is an often painful disorder that affects women. It is a disorder in which tissue (the endometrium) that normally lines the inside of your uterus grows outside it. Endometriosis might involve ovaries, fallopian tubes, and the tissue lining the pelvis. Irritations of the surrounding tissue can develop scar tissue and adhesions (bands of fibrous tissue) that can cause pelvic tissues and organs to stick to each other.
The main problem which appears as a consequence of endometriosis is infertility. The food thing is that there are effective treatments. To reduce/avoid the risks you should talk to your doctor about hormonal birth control methods; such as pills, patches, or rings with lower doses of estrogen, exercising regularly (more than 4 hours a week), avoiding large amounts of alcohol, and avoiding a large number of drinks with caffeine.

The pituitary gland is called the master gland because it produces hormones that control other glands and many body functions including growth. For example, the thyroid gland - The pituitary gland secretes a hormone into the bloodstream that stimulates the thyroid to release its hormones. The thyroid helps regulate metabolism.

Which of the following is not part of the male <br> reproduction system

Tomtit [17]

Answer:

The correct answer for the question is The Bartholin’s glands

Explanation:

The male reproductive system includes the primary organs which produce male gametes and the accessory organs which do not produce the gametes but are involved in the reproductive process. The Bartholin’s glands are located near to the vagina which is the structure associated with the female reproductive organs, therefore, is considered the part of the female reproductive system.

Further explanation:

The reproductive system is a system formed by the sex organs which work in a coordinated manner to facilitate the purpose of the sexual reproduction in humans.

The human reproduction takes place by sexual intercourse which involves the process of internal fertilisation.

The male reproductive system is a system of sex organs which involves the structures which produce the male gametes and the accessory organs which help the transfer of the gametes to the female sex organs.

The primary male gamete producing sex organs is known as the testis enclosed in the scrotum which provides a site for the sperm production and maturation. The sperms are produced by the process of spermatogenesis which takes place in the seminiferous tubules surrounded by the Sertoli cells which matures into sperms.

The epididymis is a narrow tightly coiled structure which provides the site for sperm maturation and the storage. The epidydymis connects the testis to the Vas deferens.

Vas deferens is the partially coiled tubular structure present which transfers the sperms to the ejaculatory tubules including the seminal vesicles, urethra and penis of the male reproductive structure.

The Bartholin’s gland or the Bartholin gland is located in the posterior position to the left of the vagina (a part of the female reproductive system) and is involved in the process of the production of the mucus which lubricates the vagina during sexual intercourse.
