GlossaryScrotum

pouch of skin housing and protecting male testicles

The scrotum is a pouch of skin located below the penis in males, which houses and protects the testicles. It plays a crucial role in regulating the temperature of the testicles, keeping them slightly cooler than the body's core temperature, which is essential for optimal sperm production and overall male fertility.
