*Internal mucosal layer: consists of nonkeratinized stratified squamous epithelium. The epithelium has no glands so there is no mucus secretion. It functions to protect the vagina and serve as a lining for moist internal cavities.
*Intermediate muscularis layer: has innervated smooth muscle fibers. It is arranged longitudinally and moves autonomically. It allows the contraction of the vagina especially during premenstruation. It contracts periodically to expel the uterine/vaginal contents. Its movement is only felt during dysmenorrheic pain.
*Adventitia: It is rich in collagen and elastic, provides structural support to the vagina, and allows for expansion of the vagina during intercourse and childbirth.
