Vulvar Health
The vulva consists of a woman's external genitalia. It is composed of the labia, or lips of the vulva. There are the large lips, called the labia majora, and the smaller lips, known as the labia minora. There is also the clitoris, the urethra, and the vaginal opening. The tissue surrounding the vaginal opening, containing gland openings, is also known as the vestibule.
