    The ligament becomes taut when the thigh is both flexed and either adducted or laterally/externally rotated. The ligament is usually too weak to actually function as a ligament [4] past childhood; [5] excessive movement at the hip joint is instead primarily limited by the three capsular ligament of the hip joint. [4]
