Patient's question:
I would like to consult about this. I have been experiencing pelvic effusion for a while, with episodes occurring every one or two months. During the episodes, I have abnormal vaginal discharge and lower abdominal pain. I have been to the hospital for ultrasound examinations, and the results showed pelvic effusion once and cervical canal effusion another time. Medications have not been able to the condition. I have been with my boyfriend for a year and have not breastfed or become pregnant. As a soon-to-be bride, I also want to have children, but there has been no progress. Could this be related to the inflammation? If I undergo a thorough examination, what should I check? I would like to have a six-panel sex hormone test. Do you think it is necessary?Doctor's answer:
Pelvic fluid itself does not interfere with the chances of getting pregnant. If there is pelvic inflammation, it may affect the chances of getting pregnant. You can monitor the follicular data under ultrasound to see the follicular development, and then perform a hysterosalpingography to check the patency of the fallopian tubes. During the menstrual period, you can have blood tests to measure sex hormones.After menopause, follicular fluid accumulates in the pelvic cavity, forming a small amount of pelvic fluid, which is a normal physiological phenomenon and does not require treatment. If there is pelvic inflammation, pelvic adhesions, and fallopian tube blockage, this can affect the chances of getting pregnant. Laparoscopic surgery may be required for treatment.
