Pubic symphysis
The pubic symphysis is the midline
cartilaginous
joint
uniting the superior
rami
of the left and right
pubic bones
(
pubis
). It is located anterior to the
urinary bladder
and superior to the
external genitalia
; for females it is above the
vulva
and for males it is above the
penis
. In males, the
suspensory ligament of the penis
attaches to the pubic symphysis. In females, the pubic symphysis is intimately close to the
clitoris
.
