What are the functions of male testicles and how to maintain them?

We all know that testicles are part of a man's "lifeline". Only with them can sperm be produced and male hormones secreted. So what other functions do testicles have? And how can we maintain them?

Testicles are the "lifeline" of men

The testicles are responsible for producing sperm and sex hormones. If the testicles are full of vitality, men will be young forever. Only when the testicles are effectively maintained and sexual health is guaranteed, can sexual function really play its role. If sexual function is in danger, testicular shrinkage is an obvious sign, which means that the testicles may have begun to atrophy, which will seriously affect sperm production and sexual function. If the testicles continue to shrink, sperm will not be able to function properly.

It is possible that no sperm can be found in the ejaculation fluid, and the man will lose his fertility and sexual function.

Maintain

The testicles have a thick fibrous membrane that divides the testicles into many testicular lobules. The connective tissue between the seminiferous tubules in the testicular lobules contains interstitial cells that secrete male hormones. Once men enter puberty at the age of 12-14, interstitial cells can produce a large amount of testosterone.

Testosterone is the main component of male hormones, and its biological effects in the human body are extremely important. It is currently believed that the reason why testosterone levels gradually decrease with age may be related to the aging of the testicular system due to daily wear and tear of the human body and excessive stress in life. When male hormones drop to a certain level, symptoms such as irritability, depression, fatigue, and decreased libido will appear, which means that male menopause has begun.

Testicular care is an important means to solve male dysfunction. Men can massage the testicles with both hands when taking a bath or before going to bed. Use your thumb to gently pinch the testicles clockwise and counterclockwise for ten minutes each. Long-term persistence will definitely be beneficial. If you feel abnormal pain during massage, it may be orchitis or epididymitis. Please go to the hospital for examination as soon as possible.
