Semen Analysis for Investigation of Infertility
Semen, also known as seminal fluid, is a complex fluid discharged from the male genital tract, containing spermatozoa capable of fertilizing female ova. The intricate process of semen production involves several key structures: Testes: Male gametes, or...
