The adductor longus, a slender muscle in the medial thigh, orchestrates hip movements, adding stability to lower limb functions.

Origin:
It originates from the pubic bone's superior ramus, near the pubic symphysis.

Insertion:
The adductor longus inserts into the middle third of the linea aspera on the femur.

Function:
The primary function of the adductor longus is hip adduction, pulling the thigh toward the midline. It contributes to the stabilization of the hip joint during activities like walking and standing.
