Patient's question:
In September 2017, I had an ectopic pregnancy surgery where my left fallopian tube was removed. Then in November 2018, a thorough examination revealed 65×12mm of pelvic effusion. In January 2019, a check-up showed mild vaginitis, which has already been treated with medication. This year, I want to get pregnant. Can I get pregnant with pelvic effusion? Do I need to have a fallopian tube hysteroscopy?Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to the situation you described, pelvic effusion is mostly caused by fluid leakage due to chronic inflammation, which may lead to discomfort in the lower abdomen and conditions such as tubal inflammation.Guidance and Suggestions: Hello, it is recommended that you have a thorough examination of the fallopian tube (hysterosalpingography) at a hospital 3 to 7 days after your menstrual period before planning pregnancy. Additionally, you should have a follow-up ultrasound to check for any signs of pelvic effusion. During the preconception period, both partners can take folic acid tablets to prevent neural tube defects in the fetus. It is also advisable to spend more time outdoors and exercise regularly.
There are many treatment methods for gynecological diseases, but since symptoms vary among patients, the treatment approaches differ accordingly. Therefore, patients need to undergo timely and thorough examination and diagnosis to receive symptomatic treatment.
