Approximately sperm production requires a temperature of 35 degrees Celsius, about two or three degrees lower than body temperature. Because of the nature makes the testicles are hanging outside the body so as not to overheat.

"Wearing tight underwear can make the testicles closer to the body, but on the other side of this destructive habit natural mechanism temperature setting," said Zaki Almallah, consultant urologist from the Queen Elizabeth Hospital, UK.
