CHAPTER V.

THE FEMALE PELVIS AND ITS CONTENTS.

The Pelvis.—The pelvis is the bony framework which forms the lower part of the body. On each side it forms a union with the hip bone to make the hip joint.

The female pelvis contains the reproductive organs (uterus, vagina, and ovaries), and also the bladder and lower bowel.

[Fig. 2] gives a very good idea of the shape and general structure of this bony framework; while a careful study of [Fig. 3] will enable one to form a very correct idea of the relative size and position of the various parts contained in this framework.
