  2. Dorsal nerve of the clitoris - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorsal_nerve_of_the_clitoris

    The dorsal nerve of the clitoris is a nerve in females that branches off the pudendal nerve [1] to innervate the clitoris. The nerve is important for female sexual pleasure, [2] and it may play a role in clitoral erections. [3] It travels from below the inferior pubic ramus [4] to the suspensory ligament of the clitoris.

    The deep branch of the perineal nerve is a branch of the perineal nerve, itself a branch of the pudendal nerve. [1] It pierces the medial wall of the pudendal canal. [1] The dorsal nerve of the penis for males and the dorsal nerve of the clitoris for females is the terminal branch of the pudendal nerve.

    The dorsal nerves penetrated the corporeal body and distally the glans in the hyena", and in female hyenas, "the dorsal nerves fanned out laterally on the clitoral body. Glans morphology was different in appearance in both sexes, being wide and blunt in the female and tapered in the male". [225]

  6. Corpus cavernosum of clitoris - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corpus_cavernosum_of_clitoris

    The corpus cavernosum is homologous to the corpus cavernosum penis in the male. It develops from the genital tubercle in the embryo. [1]The clitoris also has two vestibular bulbs beneath the skin of the labia minora (at the entrance to the vagina), which expand at the same time as the glans clitoridis to cap the ends of the corpora cavernosa.

  7. Isabella piercing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isabella_piercing

    Like other female genital piercings, [1] the Isabella piercing is anatomy-dependent. Nerve damage can result from piercing a clitoris that is too small or from piercing through the shaft of the clitoris and through the dorsal nerve. Piercing through the shaft of the clitoris can also result in excessive bleeding and blood loss to the clitoris ...

  8. Crus of clitoris - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crus_of_clitoris

    Each "leg" of the V converges on the clitoral body. At each divergent point is a corpus cavernosum. Together with the vestibular bulbs, they form the clitoral root. The crura are attached to the pubic arch, and are adjacent to the vestibular bulbs. The crura flank the urethra, urethral sponge, and vagina and extend back toward the pubis.

  9. Dermatome (anatomy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dermatome_(anatomy)

    A dermatome is an area of skin that is mainly supplied by afferent nerve fibres from the dorsal root of any given spinal nerve. [1] [2] There are 8 cervical nerves (C1 being an exception with no dermatome), 12 thoracic nerves, 5 lumbar nerves and 5 sacral nerves.
