The arteriae labiales anteriores are branches of the external pudendal artery that supply the external labia (labia majora pudendi) of the female genitalia.

The external pudendal artery is the vascular branch of the femoral artery from which the anterior labial arteries arise. They each anastomose with the opposite posterior labial arteries from the internal pudendal artery.
