Sperm are formed constantly, beginning during puberty, inside the highly coiled thin tubes called seminiferous tubules within each testis. Between the seminiferous tubules are cells that produce sex hormones. One such important sex hormone is testosterone, which stimulates the production of sperm. --On top of the each testis, another tightly coiled tube called the epididymis, where nearly mature sperm complete the maturation process (Crooks and Baur 2009). Mature sperm are stored in the epididymis until they are released during ejaculation.
