What causes pelvic effusion?

We know that pelvic effusion is mainly divided into physiological and pathological. Pathological effusion will be higher than ten millimeters. There are many causes for this, such as not paying attention to menstrual hygiene and infection caused by unclean sexual life. In addition, if infection occurs during gynecological surgery, it will also lead to pelvic effusion. Another reason is the spread of inflammation in adjacent tissues and organs. Let us learn about this aspect.

What causes pelvic effusion?

1. Infection after gynecological surgery:

When female friends undergo artificial surgery, IUD insertion, hysterosalpingography, etc., if the disinfection during the operation is not very strict, it is easy to cause infection problems for women after the operation. And female friends must pay attention to personal hygiene during surgery to avoid infection.

2. Spread of inflammation to adjacent organs:

Some female friends may suffer from appendicitis or peritoneal inflammation. The female reproductive organs are nearby. If the inflammation is not treated in time, it can easily spread and eventually lead to pelvic inflammation in women. Some female friends suffer from chronic cervical inflammation. The inflammation will circulate blood through the lymph and eventually cause inflammation of the connective tissue in the female pelvic area.

3. Not paying attention to hygiene during menstruation:

When women have their period, the endometrium will fall off, so the blood sinuses inside the uterine cavity will be open and there will be coagulated blood clots, which is very suitable for the growth of bacteria.

4. Postpartum and post-abortion infection:

After giving birth and having an abortion, women suffer a lot of damage to their bodies, so their bodies are very weak, and their resistance and immunity are relatively low. At this time, the female cervix is ​​also in a state of expansion. If they do not pay attention to personal hygiene at this time, all the bacteria in the vagina and cervix may continue to ascend and cause female pelvic infection.

How to prevent pelvic effusion?

1. Women should prevent the abuse of antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs. Antibiotics, whether taken orally or injected, will inhibit the lactobacilli in the vagina, disrupt the natural ecological balance of the vagina, and change the vaginal microenvironment. Pathogenic bacteria and pathogens may multiply and eventually lead to local candidal vaginitis, which in turn secretes inflammatory fluid and causes pelvic effusion.

2. Pay attention to hygiene during menstruation, pregnancy, delivery and postpartum period to prevent infection.

3. Exercise, strengthen your physical fitness, increase nutrition, pay attention to the combination of work and rest, and improve the body's resistance.
