The major vestibular glands are described as oval-shaped glands and located at the posterior vaginal introitus, with ducts opening into the vulvar vestibule, though supporting anatomical data is lacking. Microscopic analyses indicate these glands produce mucin and contain neuroendocrine cells. However, data on blood supply and innervation were scarce. There is also a conspicuous lack of delineation between the major and minor vestibular glands both anatomically and functionally. Some studies linked the glands to sexual function, suggesting a role in lubrication and orgasm, though supporting evidence is limited.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The vestibular glands are presumed to play a role in female sexual function, though their detailed physiology remains poorly understood. While these glands are believed to aid in lubrication, significant gaps exist in understanding concerning their embryology and anatomy (eg, blood supply, innervation) remain to be addressed. Future research should prioritize detailed functional anatomical and physiological studies to better understand these glands, which may in turn help inform clinical knowledge of related disorders.<\/jats:p>\n
