The mysterious area of ​​women's private parts has always been an area of ​​great concern to women themselves and men, because it is mysterious and full of beautiful colors of sex life. Let us now explain in detail the actual structure of the female vagina.

Detailed explanation of the actual structure of a woman's vagina

1. Diagram 1 of the structure of the female vagina: Mons pubis

The mons pubis is located below the abdomen and is composed of skin and thickened fat tissue. After entering puberty, pubic hair grows on the mons pubis, usually with the tip pointing downward and distributed in an inverted triangle. The mons pubis has a buffering and protective function. Also, women's pubic hair varies in quantity, size, color and shape, which is probably due to genetic characteristics that cause certain differences in individual thickness.

2. The structure of the female vagina Figure 2: Labia minora

The labia minora are located on the inner side of the labia majora. They are a pair of mucosal wrinkles with darker color and moist surface. They extend upward to the clitoral foreskin and converge at the navicular fossa of the vulva below. Like the labia majora, the shape, size, thickness, and color of women's labia minora are different, which is related to genetic inheritance, race, and nutritional factors. On the other hand, as women age and undergo physiological growth and development throughout their lives, the shape of their labia minora will also change. However, the difference between the labia minora and the labia minora is more obvious in individuals. One thing is certain, that is, the color of women's external organs. As women's estrogen levels increase, the melanin level becomes darker. When estrogen levels are low, the color of the skin and mucous membranes becomes lighter.

The clitoris is located at the top between the labia minora on both sides. It is a small, long, ring-shaped organ with a round opening at the tail end and a thin, hard tissue connected to the inner end. The erectile tissue is a kind of cavernous body tissue, which has rich venous plexus and rich peripheral nerves, so it feels sensitive and easy to bleed after being injured. A woman's clitoris is equivalent to the glans of a man's penis.

4. The structure of the female vagina Figure 4: Vestibular function

The diamond-shaped area surrounded by the labia minora on both sides is called the vestibule. The surface is covered with mucous membrane, which is similar to a triangle. The top of the triangle is the clitoris, the bottom is the frenulum of the labia, and the two sides are the labia minora. The urethral opening is at the upper end of the vestibule function. The vaginal opening is below it. The vestibular bulbs and greater Bartholin's glands are also found in this area.

5. The structure of the female vagina Figure 5: The hymen is broken

The vaginal opening is covered by a mucous membrane that is not completely closed. This mucous membrane is called the hymen. When the hymen is broken, there is a hole in the middle, through which menstruation is discharged. The size of the hymen hole and the thickness of the membrane are different for each person. After the hymen is broken, the mucous membrane appears as many round balls, which become the hymen scar. A broken hymen does not indicate anything.

How can women protect their private parts' physical and mental health?

1. Women should keep their private parts dry

A warm and humid environment is a breeding ground for bacteria, so women must keep their private parts dry and breathable. Wear pure cotton underwear, which is the most suitable clothing for vaginal area. When you're staying at home, why not wear pants without underwear? This will help to ventilate your private parts. In addition, don't wear pants that are too tight. Too tight pants are not conducive to the breathability of the private parts, and it is easy to make the private parts too hot.

2. Exercise the vagina to make it more inseparable

Train your pelvic floor muscles. This strengthens the pelvic floor muscles, which are important for women to have stronger, more ecstatic orgasms. And it is good for women's health to have multiple climaxes in their sexual life.

3. Prevent private injuries during exercise

Ladies should be careful when riding bicycles. If a woman is fond of this sport, the risk of numbness, pain, tingling and other symptoms in her sexual organs when she rides a bicycle will increase. Therefore, when cycling, you should wear thick shorts and adjust your posture to avoid pain in your private parts.

4. Gynecological examination is very important

Ladies, especially those who have sexual intercourse with their spouses, must insist on having gynecological examinations. Have a gynecological check-up at least once a year. In addition to routine physical examinations, you can also use this opportunity to communicate with your doctor about contraceptive measures and other issues related to couples' sexual life.

Common problems in women's private parts care

1. Avoid excessive cleaning of women's private parts

There is nothing wrong with washing the vulva with cold water every day, but some women who are overly hygienic not only wash it with cold water, but also often use some cleaning products to clean the private parts and vagina. Experts say that the pH value of the normal vagina is 3.3 to 4.4. This pH value is least likely to breed bacteria, and excessive cleaning can easily destroy this pH value. When the pH value is lower than 3.3, it is easy to suffer from fungal vaginitis. If the pH value is higher than 4.4, it is easy to suffer from candidal vaginitis.

2. Avoid applying medicine to women's private parts

Some women have the habit of applying medicine to their vagina from time to time, especially when they feel that the secretion is a bit too much, they will buy gynecological suppositories from the pharmacy to plug it. Discharge is a normal vaginal secretion of women. It may seem a bit "excessive" at a certain time period of the menstrual cycle. For example, during ovulation, the discharge will become thinner, so it appears to be more. However, this is not a disease and does not need to be addressed.

3. Avoid using wet wipes to care for women's private parts

Some women like to wipe their private parts with wet wipes after urinating, thinking that this is cleaner. Cai Zhongxiu believes that if there is no standard daily cleaning of the vulva, wet wipes can be used appropriately, but they should not be used frequently. If the quality of wet wipes is not up to standard, not only will it fail to clean, but it will also generate new pathogens during cleaning.
