Patient's question:
My leukorrhea has always been abnormal, but since I didn't have any other uncomfortable symptoms, I never sought treatment. Recently, I've been having frequent stomach pain. One night, the pain became unbearable, so I went to the hospital. The doctor said it was pelvic effusion and recommended surgery. I don't want to have surgery—I'm still young and haven't divorced yet.Doctor's answer:
Surgeries can be performed for conditions like tubal hydrops or tubal-ovarian cysts; patients with small infectious foci that repeatedly cause inflammation are also suitable for surgical treatment. The principle of surgery is to achieve complete cure, preventing the recurrence of disease by leaving behind residual lesions. This may involve unilateral adnexal resection or total hysterectomy combined with bilateral adnexal resection. For young women, it is important to preserve ovarian function as much as possible. Monotherapy for chronic pelvic inflammatory disease is often less effective, so a comprehensive approach to treatment is recommended. Pelvic effusion is a condition that is difficult to resolve. Patients should always maintain an optimistic attitude and face it with a positive mindset, as this can boost their confidence in combating pelvic effusion and increase their belief in recovery.
