External sexual anatomy of woman


Vulva: The vulva represents all the visible feminine external genitalia.The vulva of grown-up woman is a vertical crack lined on each side by two pairs of cutaneous folds that are the most external labia majora and the most internal labia minora.


Labia majora are fleshy; they join at the level of the pubis, still named poetically Mons Veneris.
The pubis, the external surface and the border of labia majora are naturally covered with a pilosity which begins to appear at the time of the puberty; seen from the outside, the feminine sexual surface covered with hairs has a triangular shape, clocks below, while it is rather the opposite at the man.

According to individual peculiarities: ethnic origin, pigmentation, this pilosity is more or less important, more or less brown or fair and becomes more scattered with ageing. It is evident that this pilosity is modified by the epilation which can be partial or complete , this last one being usually practised in Moslem population.


The vulva represents all the visible feminine external genitalia.The vulva of the grown-up woman is a vertical crack lined on each side by two pairs of cutaneous folds that are the most external labia majora and the most internal labia minora.

 

Labia minora: inside labia majora, there are labia minora or nymphs much finer and more or less hidden by labia majora. It is indeed commonplace and current that labia minora exceed labia majora. In their top, labia minora join to form the hood of the clitoris which they hide more or less. In the bottom their connection forms the fork situated in front of the anus. It is rather frequent to find at its level small and very fine cuts responsible for painful sexual intercourse.
Can be responsible for it an absentia of lubrication by failure of sexual excitation)   tabagic addiction , too frequent or prolonged sexual activity as well as a too weak in oestroges hormonal climate.
A regular intimate toilet is necessary to eliminate a whitish substance which forms usually and naturally in the furrow formed on each side by labia majora and labia minora: it is the smegma which is also found under the hood of the clitoris, he can be responsible for irritation and for a stench due to his fermentation. (It is always preferable to wash    with  hand, flannels are excellent reservoirs of germs, by using a soap sweet and adapted to the intimate toilet.


The Clitoris: it is situated in the superior connection of labia minora, masked more or less by the hood of the clitoris: it is a fleshy button more or less developed according to individual criteria; its size can vary some millimeters in several centimeters (2 in 3 cms). It is like the nose: there are so many sizes of clitoris as there is of sizes of nose.
It is constituted by the external union of 2 erectile bodies situated for their biggest part both sides by the vulva under labia. The clitoris is exclusively constituted by corpora cavernosa but without the albuginea, the stretchable, but not elastic membrane which recovers the male corpora cavernosa and insures their rigidity at the man. It is not thus a small penis because it does not possess the cancellous tissue which constitutes the acorn(glans) of the man. His(her,its) stimulation can provoke a completely characteristic intense pleasure of a clitoral orgasm.

Internal sexual anatomy of woman

n its book The orgasm and the West, the historian Robert Muchembled, reminds that the scholars of the XVIth and XVII ème century, taking back)the antique knowledges, thought that the genital organs of the woman were the same that those of the man, but remained hidden. The famous anatomist André Vésale, in his work De humani corporis machina 1543) show a drawing representing a vagina the shape of which is exactly that of a penis...

The Vagina:
As the penis of the man, it is a real organ and not a simple cavity; we shall see that it possesses very particular properties. Its walls bound boorishly a cylindrical cone the outside diameter of which corresponding to its entrance is smaller than the internal diameter corresponding to the cervix uteri. Its average length is of about ten approximately cms with individual variations. The digital examination realized by the woman allows her to notice that its wall is not still smooth; there are so small transverse striae in the first third at the level of the superior or anterior face according to the position up or lengthened.

Investigate her vagina
In the heart of the vagina, the woman can perceive with the extremity of the fingers a harder mass which corresponds to the cervix uteri. It is necessary to know that its length does not vary normally with the age, unless a prolapse which corresponds to a descent of the uterus in the vaginal space; this deficiency of the suspensory muscles of the uterus is often the consequence of numerous childbirt
The external diameter varies a few some cms according to the deliveries by natural pathway; it reflects a more or less strong muscles tonus of the perineum and particularly the levator) of anus and the constrictor of the vulva. It is thus more narrow at the young lady's than at the one who had numerous children. We understand the importance of the rehabilitation of the perineal muscle structure following the delivery).
In the absence of penetration the walls of the vagina are attached in its1/3 external as a closed two parts door. The plan below does not report this arrangement(measure,disposal) and, as most of the representations of the feminine sexual anatomy, it presents the vagina as a sort of tube what, that is obviously false...

The"G" zone
The walls of the vagina and more particularly the zone facing to the urethra (the zone G and not the G spot) are richly vascularized and innervated. Cancellous tissue surround the urethra, as in men but with a slightly different arrangement disposal.

The vagina lubrication
A phenomenon of vasodilatation of this vascularization occurs during the sexual excitation, causing the lubrication of the vagina; this is not a glandular secretion for the main part, but a real sudation of the vaginal wall. However, there are in the entry of the vagina two small glands: the greater vestibular glands which grease slightly . This lubrication or sudation is more or less important according to the women and their excitation level. A very important lubrication will characterize what we call : " the fountain woman ". Certain authors define the fountain woman as being the one who will have an ejaculation during the orgasm, what is an error. Itindeed exists at some of the embryonic remnants of the prostate responsible for this ejaculation. An absentia or a failure of excitation, certain medicines, an important tabagic addiction and some diseases can be responsible for a vaginal drought.

All the women can reach the vaginal orgasm
It is essential that the woman has a good knowledge of her vaginal organ which although being hollow, concave is completely comparable in its reality and its function to the male penis.
This formal representation will be determining so that the woman can reach the orgasm during the sexual relations, that is the orgasm just in time of vaginal departure which is different from the clitoral orgasm. And it is important to know that every woman possesses the potential to feel both on the condition of implementing  certain conditions. We shall see how it in the file concerning the desire and the feminine pleasure.

The Hymen
The hymen is a normally incomplete membraneous septum which fills the opening of the vagina also called vestibule. Hymen has importance only on the cultural, ideological or religious levels, but few or not on the anatomical or physiological ones. Hymen, also called "maidenhead" is visible at the virgin young lady's by spreading slightly labia minora.
Hymen is not innervated and little vascularized because its fate is to disappear; it can present various aspects to the more or less poetic names: falciform, cribiforme, ring finger, myrtiform...
If during the first sexual intercourse its tear can bleed slightly, it is not a majority, and the pain felt by the young lady, is not the consequence, it is involuntary oreflex contraction of the levators ani and constrictors for the vulva which is responsible for it.
A split during sports exercises or during dances can have the effect of reducing it to its minimal xpression! We understand that the use of tampons before " the first time " will have the same effect.
