Patient's question:
I recently had a thorough examination and found pelvic effusion, but after treatment, it was diagnosed as normal on ultrasound 4 days ago. However, suddenly I have lower abdominal pain these past two days. What could be the reason? The assistance I need: Explanation about my condition and how to treat it.Doctor's answer:
Normal women may have a small amount of pelvic fluid during ovulation or before/after menstruation, but it will never be less than 10mm. The symptoms of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) include lower abdominal pain, changes in vaginal discharge, and pelvic fluid can be detected under ultrasound, but some people may not have any symptoms. Based on your description, you may have PID or are about to have your period. However, if you have had sexual activity, you should first rule out pregnancy. From your description, it seems you have a gynecological infection. Generally, no matter which type of gynecological infection it is, it tends to recur.
