Labium majus

Other Terms: Labium majorum, Labium majus pudendi, Grande lèvre de la vulve

Description

The labium majus are projected downward and around the urogenital cleft to unite below at the posterior commissure of the vulva. They are largely composed of fatty tissue covered with integument and hair, and contain some smooth muscle fibers, vessels, and nerves. They are the female representatives of the scrotum. The medial surfaces of the labium majus are covered by delicate skin, which contains large sebaceous follicles.
