Does pelvic effusion need treatment?

The treatment of pelvic effusion depends on the cause and symptoms of the effusion. If it is a physiological and small amount of effusion, generally no special treatment is required. If it is a pathological effusion, such as caused by infection, inflammation, tumor, etc., treatment is required according to the specific situation.

Pelvic effusion actually means that there is fluid in the pelvic cavity. To put it simply, there is abnormal fluid in the area below the abdomen. If it is just physiological, it is a small amount of fluid accumulation caused by menstruation or ovulation. Generally, there is no need to worry about this, and it will disappear by itself after a while. If it is pathological, pathological effusion is generally caused by infection, inflammation, tumors and other reasons. At this time, it may be accompanied by abdominal pain, fever, abnormal leucorrhea and other symptoms. In this case, you have to go to the hospital to see a doctor immediately. The doctor may prescribe some antibiotics for you, such as cefradine capsules or metronidazole tablets. For example, pelvic effusion may also be caused by tumors. In middle-aged and elderly women, sometimes cysts grow on the ovaries. These cysts sometimes rupture, and the fluid inside flows into the pelvic cavity. In this case, you also need to go to the hospital for examination, and surgical treatment may be required if necessary.

Don't panic if you find pelvic effusion. First check if you have any uncomfortable symptoms. If there is only a small amount of effusion and no uncomfortable symptoms, it may not be a big problem and you can observe for a while. If you have obvious discomfort, especially abdominal pain, fever, abnormal vaginal discharge and other symptoms, be sure to seek medical attention in time. The doctor will conduct an examination based on the specific situation and may arrange B-ultrasound, blood tests, etc. to determine the cause.
