Patient's question:
Female, 32 years old. I don't know what's going on. I haven't had sex with my husband recently either. I usually clean my private parts and underwear, but suddenly started experiencing itching in my private area. Please ask: What is the relationship between pregnancy and pelvic effusion?Doctor's answer:
Pelvic effusion in the late stages of pregnancy may be caused by a reduced uterus controlling the pelvic area, leading to venous reflux obstruction. If the symptoms are not severe, no special treatment may be required temporarily. It is advisable to avoid prolonged standing, apply cold compresses and massages to the waist and abdomen, which can help alleviate the symptoms. Different causes can lead to different symptoms, and patients should seek systematic and standardized examinations at reputable tertiary hospitals as soon as possible to receive targeted treatment. Additionally, patients should maintain a regular schedule, take precautions against cold exposure, consume light and soft foods, ensure good ventilation, and drink plenty of warm water.
