Patient's question:
On the 27th, I had a thorough examination and found that the pelvic effusion was still present after the treatment for cervical hyperplasia. Five days later, I went to the hospital for an ultrasound. The doctor said that before treatment, the pelvic effusion was 31×16, but today it was 44×25. What's going on? I went to the hospital because my period was delayed. Before treatment, the endometrium was 9mm, but today it was 10mm. I have been taking progesterone these last two days.Doctor's answer:
Pelvic effusion can be physiological or pathological. Sometimes, having effusion before menstruation is also normal as the endometrium undergoes changes throughout the process. Now that you have had 10 days of menstruation, taking progesterone for 5 to 10 days will help, and your period should come within a week after stopping the medication. After your period, have a follow-up ultrasound to check if the effusion has resolved. If it has, it is physiological; if not, it is pathological. In addition to treating pelvic effusion, patients are advised to pay attention to their diet and maintain a joyful mood in daily life to enhance their physical condition and speed up recovery.
