How is pelvic effusion treated?

Patient's question:

I feel like since I had my baby two years ago, my stomach has been very big until now. It gives the impression that I am currently about five months pregnant. This makes me very annoyed. What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

Your condition is that the ultrasound shows pelvic effusion, and you feel your abdomen has become larger than before. The abdomen may be due to excessive fat accumulation during pregnancy because your ultrasound examination does not show any growth of fibroids or masses. Pelvic effusion will never cause the abdomen to be as large as five months pregnant. It is recommended that pelvic effusion can be treated with oral anti-inflammatory drugs, and the effusion will gradually resolve. In addition, during the treatment of pelvic effusion, in addition to symptomatic treatment, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also very important. The patient must maintain a light diet.
