breasts
Cystic distention of the epididymis is known as
spermatocele
Hydronephrosis is seen on the intravenous urogram (IVU) in what types of female carcinoma?
cervical
What glands secrete an alkaline fluid that protects the sperm from vaginal fluid?
Cowper glands (bulbourethral glands)
The process of the lobules of the breast decreasing in size and number is called
involution
