It is covered by a layer of fat, which is covered by the mons pubis. Fats consist of a wide group of compounds that are generally soluble in organic solvents and largely insoluble in water In Human anatomy or in mammals in general the mons pubis (Latin for " pubic mound " also known as the mons veneris (Latin mound of
It is divisible into a body, a superior ramus and an inferior ramus. The superior pubic ramus extends from the body to the median plane where it articulates with its fellow of the opposite side The inferior pubic ramus is thin and flattened It passes lateralward and downward from the medial end of the Superior ramus; it becomes narrower as it descends and joins with
The body forms one-fifth of the acetabulum, contributing by its external surface both to the lunate surface and the acetabular fossa. The acetabulum is a concave surface of the Pelvis. The head of the femur meets with the pelvis at the acetabulum forming the hip Joint Its internal surface enters into the formation of the wall of the lesser pelvis and gives origin to a portion of the obturator internus. The obturator internus muscle originates on the medial surface of the Obturator membrane, the Ischium near the membrane and the rim of the pubis.
In the female, the pubic bone is anterior to the urethral sponge. The urethral sponge is a spongy cushion of tissue, found in the lower genital area of Women, that sits against both the Pubic bone
The left and right hip bones join at the pubic symphysis. The pubic symphysis is the midline cartilaginous Joint (secondary cartilaginous uniting the superior rami of the left and right pubic bones.
