The pubic bones are the two bones which form the front of your pelvis and are part of your hip bone.

Your pubic bones are the most forward facing bones of your hip bone and are made up of 3 bones which are the pubis bone, ilium bone and the ischium bone.

Each of the pubic bones are made up of 3 parts which are the body, the superior ramus and the inferior ramus.

Your pubic bones also meet in the front to form the pubic symphysis.

The superior ramus helps to form the acetabulum and is ridged by an upper pectineal line and a lower obturator crest.

Your inferior ramus of your pubis fuses with your inferior ramus of the ischium.

The pubic bone is one of the three main bones that make up the pelvis, a structure located between the abdomen and thighs.

The human pelvis is a bony ring formed by two bilateral innominate bones, made from the ilium, ischium, and pubis, and the sacrum.

The innominates articulate with each other anteriorly at the pubic symphysis and posteriorly with the sacrum at the sacroiliac joints.

The organs that are located just above your pelvic bone include the reproductive organs, urinary bladder, distal ureters, proximal urethra, terminal sigmoid colon, rectum, and anal canal.

The bones of your pelvis are located within the pelvic cavity.

The groin is the area in the body where the upper thighs meet the lowest part of the abdomen.

Normally, the abdomen and groin are kept separate by a wall of muscle and tissue.

The only openings in the wall are small tunnels called the inguinal and femoral canals.
