What are the dangers of pelvic effusion?

Pelvic effusion is a relatively common gynecological disease, which can cause great harm to the female body. Do you know what the symptoms of pelvic effusion are? How can you prevent pelvic effusion in daily life? Don't worry, let's find out with the editor.

Pelvic effusion injury

1. If pelvic effusion is not treated properly, its adverse effects are very large. It can easily cause pelvic adhesions, fallopian tube blockage, etc., leading to infertility. The outpatient department of Chongqing Guobin Hospital reminds that if you usually have lower abdominal distension and pain, lumbar pain, excessive leucorrhea, and lower abdominal tenderness and pain during gynecological examination, as well as enlarged and thickened cord-like areas, you may consider chronic pelvic inflammatory disease and need active treatment to avoid aggravation of inflammation and increase in blood accumulation.

2. Most pelvic effusions are caused by inflammation, that is, caused by extravasation of chronic pelvic inflammation. Hematoma due to pelvic inflammation is best treated with a posterior fornix puncture to assess the characteristics of the fluid.

3. If there is a chronic infectious disease, it may be an inflammation of the gynecological system such as the uterus, ovaries, and bilateral fallopian tubes. It may also be caused by tuberculosis or a tumor. Pelvic inflammatory disease should be diagnosed early, otherwise it will affect pregnancy.

4. It often causes lower abdominal distension and pain, anal prolapse, back pain, excessive leucorrhea, or sudden severe pain in the lower abdomen that gradually turns into a dull pain, aggravated pain during activities, etc., affecting normal work and study.

5. If pelvic effusion is not treated promptly, it may spread to the fimbria of both fallopian tubes, causing inflammatory adhesions, leading to infertility, or miscarriage, abortion, and premature ejaculation.

6. If pelvic effusion is not treated promptly, it may cause inflammation of the surrounding tissues of the pelvis and spread to other internal organs in the pelvic area.

Pelvic effusion symptoms

1. The main symptoms of pelvic effusion are heaviness and pain in the lower abdomen. This is due to the adhesion of scars left by inflammation and pelvic congestion, which can cause heaviness and pain in the lower abdomen and soreness in the lumbar region. This type of symptom is usually more obvious after sexual intercourse, excessive fatigue, and before and after menstruation.

2. Pelvic effusion is the most common symptom of infertility. If pelvic inflammatory disease causes pelvic effusion, it will usually block both fallopian tubes and cause infertility. This situation can be found during clinical examination. The following symptoms need to be alert: the patient's uterus is retroverted, uterine activity is restricted, or adhesions occur.

3. If the disease is complicated by pelvic congestion, the menstrual volume may increase; if it causes ovarian hyperplasia, menstrual disorders may occur; if the bilateral fallopian tubes are blocked by adhesions due to inflammation and blood accumulation, female infertility may occur.

4. Pelvic effusion generally does not cause obvious systemic symptoms, sometimes with low fever, fatigue, etc. Some patients may develop neurasthenia symptoms, such as general malaise, listlessness, insomnia, etc. when the current medical history lasts too long. When the patient's immunity is reduced, it is very easy to develop subacute or acute diseases.
