The male reproductive system is responsible for producing sperm and delivering it to the female reproductive system for fertilization. This system includes organs such as the testes, where sperm is produced, and the penis, which delivers sperm during sexual intercourse. Hormones like testosterone play a crucial role in regulating the male reproductive system. It’s important to take care of this system through regular check-ups and maintaining overall health to ensure proper functioning.
