Vulva

The external genital region of the female.


A woman’s external sexual organs, at the opening leading to the vagina.


A female’s external genitals, including the mons veneris, the mound of fatty tissue covering the pubic bone; the clitoris, the small organ of sexual stimulation (removed in rare female circumcision) between the pubic bone and the urethra; two sets of folded skin, the outer “lips” (labia major) and the inner (labia minora); and the opening to the vagina, between the urethra and the anus. During childbirth, the perineal tissue toward the back of the vulva is sometimes surgically cut in an episiotomy, and the region as a whole may sometimes be anesthetized, using a pudendal block.
