QuestionChoice
The pubocervical ligaments connect the cervix to the posterior surface of the pubic symphysis. They provide support to the cervix and help stabilise the position of the uterus, contributing to the overall structural integrity of the pelvic organs and supporting the pelvic floor.

c
Connects the cervix to the pubic symphysis
QuestionChoice
The suspensory ligament (or suspensory ligament of the ovary) connects the ovary to the lateral abdominal wall, providing support and anchoring it in the pelvic cavity. The ovarian ligament links the medial side of the ovary to the uterus, helping maintain the ovary’s position relative to the uterus.

b
Connects ovary to lateral abdominal wall

a
Connects the ovary to the lateral side of the uterus
QuestionChoice
The uterosacral ligaments connect the cervix and the upper part of the uterus to the sacrum. They provide support to the uterus, helping to stabilise its position in the pelvis and maintain the alignment of the cervix relative to the sacrum, contributing to pelvic structural integrity.

d
Connects cervix to sacrum
QuestionChoice
The round ligament, an embryological remnant, originates from the uterine horns and extends through the inguinal canal to attach to the labia majora. It helps stabilise the uterus in the pelvis and maintains its position by anchoring it to the labia majora.
