Ligaments10
- The symphysis pubis connects these two weight-bearing arches, and the ligaments that surround this pelvic region maintain the mechanical integrity. (wikipedia.org)
- During pregnancy and birth, the ligaments around the pubic symphysis become flexible, so that the child may pass through without difficulty or complications. (healthline.com)
- The ligaments surrounding joints in your pelvic area become more relaxed and flexible - and may stretch too far or allow pelvic bones to move too easily. (babycenter.com)
