Where are sperms made in human?Location of sperms and eggs in human?

The human body is equipped with a reproductive system. Both male and female carry different parts essential for procreation.  The male's body generates sperm which is necessary for creation to occur. Sperm are produced in the male's testes.  The testes are located in the scrotum which is a sac that supports them. Testes normally descend before birth, but in instances when they don't, the risk of infertility is present.


The testicles are organs that are oval in shape and lie in the scrotum.  They are attached by the spermatic chord.  Most males are equipped with two of them.  In order for males to generate sperm they need the hormone testosterone, which is manufactured in the testes.  Sperm is produced inside the seminiferous tubules, which are coiled masses of tubes.


The female reproductive system is responsible for the release of eggs which are necessary for reproduction.  The eggs develop in the female and remain in the ovaries for the life cycle.  The female does not duplicate eggs throughout her life.  The eggs also age as the female ages and increasing the risk for a child of an older female to be at risk for a disorder at birth. The female body manufactures the hormone estrogen.  The female body also produces female sex cells called “ova.” Only around 400 of the cells will mature creating the eggs necessary for reproduction.
