is a small projection of
erectile tissue in the vulva
of the female reproductive
system
The hymen is a
membrane of tissue that
surrounds or partially
covers the vaginal
opening
It contains thousands of
nerve endings and very rich
blood that make it an
extremely sensitive organ
when it is touched and
stimulated, the woman
becomes aroused, as it fills
with blood and becomes firm
and erect, producing sexual
enjoyment.
The vestibule contains the vaginal
opening. At the base of the vaginal
opening are two pea-sized glands
known as 'Bartholin's glands'. These
are positioned on either side of the
vaginal opening.
These glands secrete fluid for
lubrication during sexual arousal, to
allow the entrance of the vagina to
be moist, so that the penis may
enter more easily during intercourse
which is a sex organ and
mainly functions for the
facilitation of sexual
intercourse and childbirth.
