Patient's question:
I had my period on December 4th, and it still hasn't come by today, January 24th. I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up and confirmed I'm not pregnant. There is a significant amount of pelvic effusion, and I have some mild lower abdominal pain. I previously had vaginal inflammation, which I treated with suppositories and resolved. Is this pelvic inflammatory disease? What other tests should I undergo? I am currently trying to conceive.Doctor's answer:
According to the ultrasound results, it shows pelvic effusion. Pelvic effusion is a chronic inflammation of the pelvic cavity, and chronic inflammation can also lead to delayed menstruation. Based on the thickness of the endometrium, it should be close to menstruation. Pay close attention and observe carefully. It is recommended that pelvic effusion can be treated with anti-inflammatory fluids during menstruation. During menstruation, pay attention to menstrual hygiene, change sanitary pads frequently, and keep the external genitalia clean and dry. Eat a light diet.
