In women, the urethra is very short and opens just in front of the vagina.he wall of the bladder has 4 main layers. 1  The innermost lining is made up of cells called urothelial or transitional cells, so this layer is called the urothelium or transitional epithelium. 2  Beneath the urothelium is a thin layer of connective tissue, blood vessels, and nerves, which is called the lamina propria.
