This class will initially cover the anatomy and physiology of the typical male reproductive parts using anatomical models to show and describe them. We will discuss various processes, including how the testes produce sperm, the nervous system innervation of erection and ejaculation, the hypothalamus-testes axis, and other physiological functions. We will then focus on health treatments with a focus on prostate health. The goal of this class is for participants to understand male reproductive physiology and to know a few herbs that can help with health conditions.
