What is "sex organ"?

A sex organ is a specialized anatomical structure in the human body that plays a central role in sexual reproduction and the expression of sexual characteristics. In males, the primary sex organs are the testes, which produce sperm and male sex hormones. The penis is also considered a sex organ involved in sexual intercourse. In females, the primary sex organs are the ovaries, which produce eggs (ova) and female sex hormones. The vagina, uterus, and breasts are also considered sex organs, as they contribute to sexual pleasure, menstruation, pregnancy, and breastfeeding. Sex organs are essential for reproduction and are key components of the human reproductive system and sexual health.
