Vagina

The vagina is part of the female reproductive tract. It extends from the uterus to outside the body. The opening to the vagina is located between the bowel opening (anus) and the opening for the bladder (urethra).

Blood from a menstrual period flows through the vagina. And babies are born through the vagina.
