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: -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-3: -Conclusions: Preejaculatory fluid secreted at the tip of the urethra from Cowper’s gland during sexual stimulation did not contain sperm and therefore cannot be responsible for pregnancies during coitus interruptus.
