The crura of the clitoris are two elongated structures that extend from the clitoral body and run along the pubic bones. They are part of the clitoris, which is a key component of the female reproductive system and plays a significant role in sexual arousal and pleasure. The crura help anchor the clitoris to the pelvic region, providing stability and support. These structures are made of erectile tissue, similar to that found in the penis. When stimulated, the crura can engorge with blood, contributing to sexual excitement and enhancing sensitivity. Understanding the anatomy of the clitoris, including the crura, is important for sexual health and education.
