The pubic bone, also known as the pubis, is located on each side of the pelvis.
Specifically, for a male, the pubic bone is found:
- On each side of the pelvis.
- In the front and center of the pelvis, where the two pubic bones meet at a joint called the pubic symphysis.
According to the provided reference, "Your pubis, or pubic bone, is the smallest bone **on each side of your pelvis**. Your two pubic bones meet in the front and center of your pelvis at a joint called your pubic symphysis."
Therefore, the pubic bone is a paired structure with one on the left and another on the right side of the pelvis.
To better understand its location, think of the pelvis as a bowl-shaped structure. The pubic bones are part of the rim of this bowl, specifically positioned at the front, meeting in the middle at the pubic symphysis.
