MICROANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -The bulbourethral gland or Cowper’s gland, which is homologous to the Bartholin’s gland in females, produces a pre-ejaculate that cleanses and lubricates the urethra prior to the arrival of the semen.

Detailed explanation-2: -bulbourethral gland, also called Cowper’s Gland, either of two pea-shaped glands in the male, located beneath the prostate gland at the beginning of the internal portion of the penis; they add fluids to semen during the process of ejaculation (q.v.).

Detailed explanation-3: -The bulbourethral glands are responsible for producing a pre-ejaculate fluid called Cowper’s fluid (known colloquially as pre-ejaculate or pre-cum), which is secreted during sexual arousal, neutralizing the acidity of the urethra in preparation for the passage of sperm cells.

Detailed explanation-4: -The Cowper’s glands (bulbourethral glands) are normal anatomic structures that are rarely present within a transrectal prostatic biopsy.
