Skene's gland

They also think that the fluid is produced by the Skene's glands.

Hines asserted that if such a spot exists, it is not particular to the Skene's glands.

The Skene's glands are homologous with the prostate gland in males.

Skene's glands have highly variable anatomy, and in some extreme cases they appear to be missing entirely.

The epoophoron and Skene's glands may be present.

They contend that the Skene's gland does not appear to have receptors for touch stimulation, and that there is no direct evidence for its involvement.

Some physicians believe that urethral syndrome may be due to a low grade infection of the Skene's glands on the sides and bottom of the urethra.
