PATHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Cowper’s glands are pea sized glands present inferior to the prostate gland in the male reproductive system. They produce thick clear mucus prior to ejaculation that drains into the spongy urethra.

Detailed explanation-2: -The Cowper’s glands, also known as bulbourethral glands, [1, 2, 3] are a pair of small exocrine glands of the male reproductive system, located in the urogenital diaphragm, deeply located posterolateral to the membranous (or bulbous) portion of the urethra, and below the apex of the prostate.

Detailed explanation-3: -The bulbourethral glands function to lubricate the spongy urethra for the passage of the ejaculate.
