The testicular thermoregulation ismaintained by a complex anatomical structures and physiological phenomenaincluding convection, conduction, radiation and evaporation. The testiculartemperature variation has a deleterious outcome on the reproductive performanceof male reproductive system, though, duration and intensity of the insult isthe pivot point. By regulating the altered thermal offense, the reproductiveperformance can be improved, however, with a consistent increase in the globaltemperature, there is a need of extensive investigations to undermine thethermoregulatory mechanism, its performance, anatomical and physiologicaladaptations, in the upcoming hot and humid environment.
