what is spermatogenesis?
The spermatogenesis is the male counterpart of oogenesis in females. The spermatogenesis and oogenesis are the two forms of gametogenesis. Spermatogenesis consists of stages: (1) spermatocytogenesis, (2) spermatidogenesis, and (3) spermiogenesis. In humans, it starts at puberty and continues throughout lifetime. It occurs in the male testes and epididymis in a stepwise fashion. The entire process can take approximately 64 days.
