Electrophysiological and biophysical perspectives on the clitoral corpus cavernosum and its role in female sexual arousal disorder [PDF]
Frontiers in PhysiologyThe clitoris is a vital part of the female sexual system, playing a crucial role in sexual satisfaction and overall sexual health. During arousal, the smooth muscle within the corpus cavernosum of the clitoris relaxes, which increases blood flow and ...
