The pelvic cavity does not contain a specific volume of blood on its own. Blood passes through the pelvic cavity as it circulates throughout the body. The total blood volume in the human body is approximately 5-6 liters.

Difference between false pelvis and true pelvis?
The male and female pelvic areas vary in a number of ways, as required by the differences in internal organs and their function. The most obvious difference is a shorter, broader pelvis in females, which is limited by the need to articulate the hips and legs (to walk upright in a normal manner).Characteristics of Male Pelvis :Bone are taller, heavier, and thickerMore prominent bone markingsObturator foramen is roundPubic arch v-shapedPelvic inlet heart-shapedSmaller pelvic outlet smallerIschipubic rami is more evertedSciatic notch is narrowerSubpubic arch is more acuteIschial spine is projected inwardsAcetabulum is largerCharacteristics of Female Pelvis :Bones are lighter and less denseWider / shallower profileLarger superior and inferior aperturesObturator foramen is ovalPubic arch widerPelvic inlet oval-shapedIschiopubic rami is less evertedSciatic notch is widerSubpubic arch is widerIschial spine is projected outwardsAcetabulum is smaller

The heart is held in place by the pericardium, a double-walled sac that surrounds the heart and anchors it within the chest cavity.

How much blood is lost in a pelvic fracture?
I will try to answer it although the question could be considered very similar to "How much would a car crash cost me to repair" The "average" "severe" pelvic fractures can bleed around 6 units of blood (pints or 473ml) Fortunately, the more common fracture of pubic rami (common in old ladies) bleed much less, perhaps 0.5 - 2 units A fractured femur can bleed around 3 or 4 units Absolutely ALL fractures anywhere in the body will bleed. No exceptions. Amount varies from 4ml for a very simple finger fracture, to "bleeding to death" in pelvic fractures. I have been involved in treating numerous cases of pelvic fractures. Despite stabilisation with external skeletal fixation frame, 4 cases of them just continued bleeding any units of blood we infuse. The blood was leaking into pelvic and abdominal cavity. One patient stopped bleeding with a clever interventional radiologist arterial blockage, the second by laparotomy and ligating the internal iliac artery and the other 2 died despite the ligations. Nowadays, most serious pelvic injuries are sustained in unrestrained car crashes. I always wear my seatbelt. So you should.

What month will a slim person stomach start show if they are pregnant?
Generally speaking, this will start to happen early in their third month, but there are no absolute rules. Pregnant belly size is governed to a large extent by the size of a woman's pelvis- if she has a wide pelvic cavity, then the growing foetus can drop down into the pelvic girdle and not necessarily become noticeable until mid or even late term. If, however, she has a narrow pelvis, then the foetus can only grow outwards, pushing the abdominal wall out with it and causing the woman to 'show' sooner. Slimness of physique is no indicator of the size of a pelvic cavity- a very slim woman can have a large pelvic cavity and still not show until quite late on, whilst a less slim one can have a narrow pelvis and start to bulge much earlier. I had a female biology tutor at college some years ago who was very slim, but went to almost full term without showing at all because her pelvic cavity was so large. On the other hand, my godmother (who, ironically, is a doctor) was also slim, but already looked full-term when she was only 6 months and by the time she really WAS full term, she was so huge she could barely stand! But belly size is also governed by how much amniotic fluid a woman produces in her womb, and also simply whether she is carrying a big baby or not.
