How many nerves does a vagina have?

Best Answers

All of the genitalia contain a huge number of nerve endings (the clitoris alone has more than 8,000 of them), which are, in turn, connected to large nerves that run up through the body to the spinal cord. read more

The clitoris alone has 8000 nerve endings, many more than the entire penis. The only function of a clitoris is pleasure. Unlike a penis which has a function of urination and insemination, the clitoris is not involved in either function. It exists purely for pleasure. read more

The vagina itself doesn't have many nerve endings, almost all the stimulation from sex comes from the various connections to the clitoris being pulled on during sex. read more

The outer one-third of the vagina, especially near the opening and the clitoris contains nearly 90 percent of the vaginal nerve endings and therefore is much more sensitive to touch. read more
