Study Notes

Human Sexuality Concepts

  • Sexuality encompasses complex behaviors, attitudes, and emotions related to sexual self and eroticism.
  • Sex is a fundamental and dynamic aspect of life.
  • Nurses serve as resources for understanding human sexuality during reproductive years (15-44).

Female Reproductive System Anatomy and Physiology

  • Mons pubis/veneris: a pad of fatty tissue covering the symphysis pubis, providing cushioning.
  • Stages of pubic hair development are assessed using Tanner's scale.
  • Labia majora: large, longitudinal folds from the perineum to the symphysis pubis.
  • Labia minora (nymphae): thin, soft, longitudinal folds between the labia majora.
  • Clitoris: sensitive erectile tissue composed of nerve endings, a site of sexual arousal.
  • Fourchette: posterior portion of the labia majora.

Internal Female Reproductive System

  • Vagina: a passageway for menstruation and intercourse.
  • Uterus: a hollow muscular organ with variations in size, weight, and shape.
  • Non-pregnant uterus: typically 50-60 grams.
  • Pregnant uterus: significantly larger weight (1000 g).
