Abstract
Shukra dhatu is present throughout the body, but according to Sushruta, it is most prominent at the bladder opening. Moola-sthana (origin) of Shukravaha srotasa (system related with reproductive tissue) has been attributed to Vrishana (testis), Shepha (penis), Stana (breast), and Majja (bone marrow). Shukradhara kala is a vital structure that spans the entire body.The transformation of Ahara Rasa into Shukra Dhatu takes about a month. Shukra's origins may be traced back to Ahara Parinamana, as a result of Majja Dhatu, and as a result of Soma – Jala Mahaabhuta. Shukra's Abhivyakti suggests that, although its inconspicuous presence since birth, its full expression comes only after a certain period, namely adolescence. Shukra Pramaana is Ardha Anjali (1/2 handful), whereas typical semen volume is 2 ml according to WHO standards. Dhairya (sexual potency), Chyavanam (timely ejaculation), Preeti (love for partner), Dehabalam (physical strength), Harshana (sexual desire), and Beejaratha (to fulfil the purpose of beeja, i.e. procreation) are considered to be the functions of the Shukra. When Shukra, which is prevalent throughout the body, is triggered by Harsha, Darshana, Smarana, hearing the voice, Sparshana, or performing sexual activities, Shukra travels to the testis and ejaculates it.
Spermatogenesis is a highly structured, complicated series of mitotic and meiotic differentiation processes that result in genetically differentiated male gametes for fertilisation with the female ovum. It aids in the propagation of a species and adds to genetic diversity on a larger scale. Spermatogenesis is the process of turning spermatogonial germ cells into spermatids through cell proliferation and remodelling. Several inherent and external variables influence the process. Spermatids are transformed into motile spermatozoa, which are highly specialised haploid cells, during spermiogenesis. Spermatozoa are discharged into the epididymis via the seminiferous tubules, where they undergo post-testicular maturation and storage. At the time of ejaculation, the ejaculate, or semen, is freshly generated. Ejaculation usually follows a predictable pattern.
