Pubic symphysis is made up of

The pubic symphysis is a joint located between the two pubic bones in the pelvis. It is a cartilaginous joint, specifically classified as a symphysis.

In the pubic symphysis, the adjacent surfaces of the pubic bones are covered with a thin layer of hyaline cartilage, and between them lies a fibrocartilaginous disc. This disc is made up of fibrous cartilage, which is a type of cartilage that contains both collagen fibers and cartilage cells.

The fibrocartilaginous disc in the pubic symphysis acts as a shock absorber and provides some flexibility to the joint. It allows for limited movement between the pubic bones and contributes to the overall stability of the pelvis during activities like walking, running, and other weight-bearing movements.
