  1. mons pubis

    The mons pubis is a rounded, fatty area that is located above the pubic bone in females and covered with pubic hair. It helps to protect the pubic bone and underlying structures during sexual intercourse. In males, this area is less prominent. Its size can vary depending on factors such as body type and levels of hormones.

  1. Mons pubis

    In human anatomy, and in mammals in general, the mons pubis, also known as the mons veneris or simply the mons, is the adipose tissue lying above the pubic bone of adult females, anterior to the pubic symphysis. The mons pubis forms the anterior portion of the vulva. The size of the mons pubis varies with the general level of hormone and body fat. After puberty it is covered with pubic hair and enlarges. In humans, the mons pubis divides into the labia majora on either side of the furrow, known as the pudendal cleft, that surrounds the labia minora, clitoris, vaginal opening, and other structures of the vulval vestibule. The fatty tissue of the mons pubis is sensitive to estrogen, causing a distinct mound to form with the onset of puberty. This pushes the forward portion of the labia majora out and away from the pubic bone.
