A member asked:
How many nerves in a woman's body are involved/stimulated during labor and delivery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
TMTC: Too many to count! obviously nerves serving uterus, vagina, pelvic organs, hips, sacrum, buttocks, legs, lower abdomen, diaphragm, ribs, back muscles are affected and probably even more! giving birth is a total body work-out!
