In mammals, the vulva (pl.: vulvas or vulvae) consists of the external female genitalia and an inner portion extending to the vaginal and urinary openings. For humans, it includes the mons pubis, labia majora, labia minora, clitoris, vestibule, urinary meatus, vaginal introitus, hymen, and openings of the vestibular glands (Bartholin's and Skene's).

Anatomical terminology. [edit on Wikidata] In amniotes, the clitoris (/ ˈklɪtərɪs / ⓘ KLIT-ər-iss or / klɪˈtɔːrɪs / ⓘ klih-TOR-iss; pl.: clitorises or clitorides) is a female sex organ. [1] In humans, it is the vulva 's most erogenous area and generally the primary anatomical source of female sexual pleasure. [2]
The labia minora are vertical folds of skin in the very middle of the vulva. The labia are the major externally visible structures of the vulva. In humans and other primates, there are two pairs of labia: the labia majora (outer lips) are large and thick folds of skin that cover the vulva's other parts, while the labia minora (inner lips) are ...
The uterus or womb is the major female reproductive organ. The uterus provides mechanical protection, nutritional support, and waste removal for the developing embryo (weeks 1 to 8) and fetus (from week 9 until the delivery). In addition, contractions in the muscular wall of the uterus are important in pushing out the fetus at the time of birth.
The labia minora (Latin for 'smaller lips', sg.: labium minus), also known as the inner labia, inner lips, or nymphae, [1] are two flaps of skin that are part of the primate vulva, extending outwards from the inner vaginal and urethral openings to encompass the vaginal vestibule. [2] At the glans clitoris, each labium splits, above forming the ...

The cervix is the lower part of the uterus situated between the external os (external orifice) and internal os (internal orifice). The cervical canal connects the interior of the vagina and the cavity of the body of uterus. The cervix is part of the female reproductive system. Around 2–3 centimetres (0.8–1.2 in) in length, [3] it is the ...
