What are the symptoms of pelvic effusion and what causes it?

Pelvic effusion usually manifests itself with symptoms such as lower abdominal pain, abnormal menstruation, increased vaginal discharge, and lumbar pain. If women experience obvious discomfort or symptoms continue to worsen, they should seek medical attention as soon as possible.

Pelvic effusion is divided into physiological and pathological types, and the severity and nature of the symptoms are significantly different. Physiological pelvic effusion is mostly caused by hormonal changes during ovulation or menstruation, usually in small amounts and without obvious discomfort, and no special treatment is required. Pathological pelvic effusion is often caused by inflammatory infections (such as pelvic inflammatory disease, salpingitis), complications after gynecological surgery (such as postoperative infection) or gynecological diseases such as endometriosis, and manifests as persistent lower abdominal distension and pain, fever, pain during sexual contact, etc. In severe cases, it may even be accompanied by symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, or urgency and pain during urination. External factors such as long-term sitting, excessive fatigue or frequent pelvic operations may also aggravate the occurrence of pelvic effusion. Decreased immune function, long-term bad living habits (such as sitting for a long time and holding urine or lack of exercise) and personal hygiene problems are all causes and need to be taken seriously.

If the diagnosis is clearly pathological pelvic effusion, treatment methods targeting the cause can be selected: 1) Drug treatment: Antibiotics (such as cephalosporins, macrolides or metronidazole) can be used to control infection, and anti-inflammatory analgesics can be used to relieve symptoms; 2) Surgical treatment: Patients with severe bacterial pelvic infection can consider laparoscopic drainage of effusion; 3) Physical therapy: Pelvic physical therapy can promote blood circulation and improve local inflammation. In life, you should pay attention to maintaining personal hygiene, regular work and rest, strengthening exercise and drinking more water to improve body circulation and reduce pelvic pressure. If the symptoms affect your life, you need to seek professional medical help in time to avoid delaying the disease.
