Female pelvic anatomy The pelvis is the ring of bones between the hips where several organs and structures are located. The female pelvic area includes the fallopian tubes, ovaries, uterus, cervix, bladder, urethra, pelvic floor muscles, clitoris, vagina, and rectum.

The bony pelvis is made up of two pelvic bones – the sacrum and the coccyx. Each pelvic bone (hip bone) is made by the combination three bones namely, the ilium, pubis, and ischium. These three bones fuse at a cup-shaped concavity called the acetabulum which articulates with the head of the femur to form the hip joint.

The pelvic girdle, also known as the hip bone, is composed of three fused bones: the ilium, ischium and the pubic bone. The pelvic spine is the posterior portion of the pelvis below the lumbar spine, composed of the sacrum and coccyx.
