The perineum, vulva, and lower vagina are very sensitive to pain, while the upper vagina is relatively insensitive.

When the uterus compresses the nerve endings in the cervix, the uterus contracts with pain. The ovaries are not sensitive to many stimuli but are sensitive to squeezing movements during double-checking. When the ovarian parenchyma swells faster, it can cause pain. The fallopian tubes are sensitive to cutting, crushing, pressing and touching movements.
