Most physicians lack education on the science of the vulva, including gynecologists. Surprisingly, the human clitoris's nerve count was only discovered in 2023 (Uloko et al), highlighting the neglect of this crucial structure in research. This oversight contributes to high instances of urinary tract infections, chronic pelvic pain, recurrent vaginal infections, and overactive bladder symptoms. Prioritizing vulvar health within the medical community could significantly reduce the prevalence of these diseases. #WomensHealth #MedicalResearch #VulvarHealth
