Is it normal to have pelvic effusion in an ultrasound examination?

Patient's question:

Pregnant for 40 days, ultrasound examination revealed 2.2 cm of pelvic effusion. There is some abdominal pain when hiccups and cough.

Doctor's answer:

I'm happy to help you clarify your doubts. Based on your specific questions, here is the clarification:
Many cases of pelvic effusion are physiological and do not necessarily require treatment. Excessive gas after belching may not be related to this. Additionally, since you are currently pregnant, you should not take medication blindly. Rest and maintain a light diet. After one month, a follow-up check-up is recommended. As long as the effusion does not significantly increase, there should be no problem.
When patients face the harm of pelvic effusion, we should actively carry out thorough examinations and treatment. Avoid avoiding medical visits. If the pelvic effusion does not improve after treatment, it is important to promptly adjust the treatment plan.
