Bulbo Urethral Gland

Definition: The bulbo urethral gland, also known as Cowper's gland, is a pair of small exocrine glands located beneath the prostate gland in males. These glands play a crucial role in the male reproductive system by producing a viscous alkaline fluid, which is released into the urethra during sexual arousal. The fluid helps to neutralize the acidity of the residual urine in the urethra and provides lubrication for easier sperm passage.

Sample Sentences:

1. During sexual arousal, the bulbo urethral glands secrete their fluid to prepare for ejaculation.
2. The alkaline secretion from the bulbo urethral gland helps protect the sperm from the acidic environment of the urethra.
3. Inflammation of the bulbo urethral gland can cause discomfort and affect normal ejaculation.
