Clitoral Nerve Network Mapped for First Time, Promising Advances for FGM Survivors
For the first time, a detailed 3D map of the complex nerve network within the clitoris has been created, revealing its extent and branching patterns in unprecedented detail. This groundbreaking research challenges previous anatomical understandings and highlights the extensive reach of clitoral nerves, extending to the mons pubis and vulvar structures, not just the glans. The findings are expected to significantly impact reconstructive surgery following female genital mutilation and improve sexual function outcomes for women undergoing pelvic surgeries.
