What are the locations of pelvic effusion?

Where are the locations of pelvic fluid accumulation?

1. Pelvic effusion often occurs in the lower part of the pelvic cavity such as the uterine rectal pouch. The commonly used and effective examination method in gynecology is B-ultrasound, which can accurately determine the amount of effusion. It can be determined whether it is normal effusion or abnormal effusion in detail by combining medical history, symptoms and physical signs. If it is confirmed to be abnormal effusion, the cause of the effusion must be determined, and removing the cause is the key. Extracting the effusion is a Western medicine examination or symptomatic treatment method and should not be done frequently. Because simply extracting the effusion will not only not cure the pelvic effusion, but will also increase the effusion.

2. Physiological pelvic effusion. Because the pelvic cavity is the lowest part of the abdominal cavity in the whole body, when there is exudate or leaked fluid, it will drain into the pelvic cavity, thus forming pelvic effusion. Some normal women will have a small amount of blood accumulated in the pelvic cavity during menstruation or ovulation, forming pelvic effusion. Such pelvic effusion is sometimes a good thing. It proves that the woman's fallopian tube is unobstructed. If the fallopian tube has exudate, if the umbrella end is unobstructed, a small amount of exudate will flow into the pelvic cavity, thus forming pelvic effusion. If the fallopian tube is not unobstructed, it will cause fallopian tube effusion. The liquid of such pelvic effusion is generally less and will be gradually absorbed, so there is no need to be afraid. Generally, no treatment is required.

3. Pathological pelvic effusion. In clinical practice, pelvic effusion in most women is caused by inflammation. It is the presence of inflammatory exudate in the pelvis. If it is not treated, it can grow slowly. If it is too large, it is not easy to eliminate it with medicine, and surgical treatment is required. Pathological gynecological pelvic effusion is mostly caused by pelvic inflammatory adnexitis or endometriosis. The causes of pelvic inflammatory adnexitis are mostly related to the patient's bad hygiene habits, such as having sex during menstruation or within one month after delivery, taking a bath within one month after gynecological surgery, etc. Medical-induced infection caused by improper disinfection of artificial abortion and induced labor can also cause pelvic effusion.
