The bulbourethral glands, also known as Cowper's glands, are pea-sized glands located inferior to the prostate on either side of the membranous urethra within the deep muscles of the perineum. They secrete a clear fluid that lubricates and neutralizes acidic urine that may be left in the urethra, enhancing the survival of sperm. The other structures listed are not located inferior to the prostate within the deep muscles of the perineum.
