Structure and Function of the Clitoris: The clitoris is a highly sensitive organ located at the top of the vulva. It has many nerve endings, making it an important part of sexual pleasure for many women. The clitoris consists of the glans (the visible part), the clitoral hood (a protective fold of skin), and the internal parts that extend into the pelvic region.

Blood and Nerve Supply: The clitoris is richly supplied with blood vessels and nerves. The blood supply is mainly from the deep and dorsal arteries, ensuring it remains well-nourished. The nerves responsible for sensation come from the pudendal nerve, which transmits sensations from the clitoris to the brain.
