Patient's question:
I would like to consult about this. I have been experiencing pelvic effusion for a long time, 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 without breastfeeding and have not 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 sex hormone six test. Do you think it is necessary?Doctor's answer:
Pelvic effusion itself does not interfere with the chances of getting pregnant. If there is pelvic inflammatory disease, 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 hysterosalpingogram 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 effusion, which is a normal physiological phenomenon and does not require treatment. If there is pelvic inflammatory disease, pelvic adhesions, and fallopian tube blockage, this may interfere with the chances of getting pregnant. Laparoscopic surgery may be required for treatment.
