The same human pelvis, front imaged by X-ray (top), magnetic resonance imaging (middle), and 3-dimensional computed tomography (bottom). The pelvis (pl.: pelves or pelvises) is the lower part of an anatomical trunk, [1] between the abdomen and the thighs (sometimes also called pelvic region), together with its embedded skeleton [2] (sometimes also called bony pelvis or pelvic skeleton).
The pelvic cavity is a body cavity that is bounded by the bones of the pelvis. Its oblique roof is the pelvic inlet (the superior opening of the pelvis). Its lower boundary is the pelvic floor. The pelvic cavity primarily contains the reproductive organs, urinary bladder, distal ureters, proximal urethra, terminal sigmoid colon, rectum, and ...
the abdominal region encompassing the stomach area; the umbilical region is located around the navel; the coxal region encompassing the lateral (side) of hips; the pubic region encompassing the area above the genitals. The pelvis and legs contain, from superior to inferior, the inguinal or groin region between the thigh and the abdomen,

As might be expected, the contents of the urogenital triangle differ greatly between the male and the female. Some of the components include: [1] Posterior scrotal nerves / posterior labial nerves; Urethra; Vagina; Bulbourethral gland / Bartholin's gland; Muscles Superficial transverse perineal muscle; Ischiocavernosus muscle; Bulbospongiosus ...
The male pelvis, formed by left and right hip bones, sacrum, and coccyx. The female pelvis is wider than the male pelvis to accommodate childbirth. At about the age of puberty, ossification takes place in each of the remaining portions, and they join with the rest of the bone between the twentieth and twenty-fifth years.
The human female reproductive system is a series of organs primarily located inside the body and around the pelvic region of a female that contribute towards the reproductive process. The human female reproductive system contains three main parts: the vagina, which leads from the vulva , the vaginal opening, to the uterus; the uterus , which ...
