Introduction to the Anatomy, Physiology and Endocrinology of Reproductive Systems
This module is an introduction to male and female reproductive anatomy and physiology, focusing on normal functions as well as the recognition of pathologies. Key content areas include an in-depth study of the male reproductive system and its physiological processes, along with a thorough examination of the female reproductive anatomy, including the menstrual cycle and hormonal regulation. Students will also explore the guidelines, regulations, and legislative frameworks that govern practices in andrology and assisted reproductive technology (ART), with an emphasis on the importance of accurate record-keeping for patient data.
