Spermatogenesis is a complex biological process that occurs within the seminiferous tubules of the testes. It erotic involves the continuous production of spermatozoa from germ cells and is regulated by hormonal signals from the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis. Any disruption in this process may lead to impaired fertility.
Andrology examines both intrinsic and extrinsic factors influencing spermatogenesis, including genetic defects, hormonal imbalances, infections, heat exposure, and systemic diseases. Understanding testicular physiology is essential for diagnosing conditions such as oligospermia, azoospermia, and testicular failure.
