What is "epididymis"?

The epididymis is a coiled tube situated behind each testicle, serving as a site for the final maturation and storage of sperm. It provides a suitable environment for sperm to acquire motility and fertilization capacity through its intricate structure and secretions. Additionally, the epididymis facilitates the transport of sperm from the testes to the vas deferens during ejaculation, playing a vital role in the male reproductive process.
