Detailed explanation-1: -Testicles are about two degrees Celsius lower in temperature than the rest of your body. Cooler temperatures are better for making sperm, a process called spermatogenesis.
Detailed explanation-2: -The temperature in human testis is 2-3 degrees C less than that of body providing a suitable environment for sperm production. Pampiniform plexus play a major role in this.
Detailed explanation-3: -The testes lie outside of the body and are maintained at a temperature about 2oC lower than the body’s core temperature. This is because sperm production and quality is optimal at this lower temperature.
Detailed explanation-4: -Because it is housed inside the body, semen typically stays within a few degrees of the 98.6 degrees (37 degrees Celsius) the human body maintains. This makes cold semen very unlikely to occur.
