How much pelvic effusion is serious

Generally speaking, if the pelvic effusion is higher than ten millimeters, it is pathological pelvic effusion. When it is less than ten millimeters, it is generally considered physiological pelvic effusion. When pathological pelvic effusion occurs, regular treatment is required in a timely manner. After all, the harm to women caused by this condition is relatively large, and it can easily lead to infertility and symptoms of repeated abdominal pain.

How much pelvic effusion is serious

Pelvic effusion refers to the presence of inflammatory exudate in the pelvic cavity. It can occur after the endometrium becomes inflamed. It is a slightly viscous fluid that exudes from the swollen cells of the endometrial tissue and is gradually wrapped by the surrounding tissue to form a cystic mass. If left untreated, it can grow slowly. In addition to normal pelvic effusion in women due to their physiological characteristics, pathological pelvic effusion is mostly due to pelvic inflammatory disease or endometriosis.

The normal range of pelvic fluid is generally less than 10 mm. Pelvic effusion can be divided into two types according to pathological factors: physiological pelvic effusion and pathological pelvic effusion. Physiological pelvic effusion is not a bad thing for women, but once a woman suffers from pathological pelvic effusion, she should go to the hospital for treatment in time.

If the pelvic effusion exceeds 10 mm, it is mostly pathological pelvic effusion. At this time, pelvic effusion is relatively serious. Therefore, physiological pelvic effusion is considered serious. If there are chronic infection lesions, it may be an inflammation of the gynecological system such as pelvic inflammatory disease, adnexitis, endometriosis, ovary, or fallopian tube. It may also be caused by tuberculosis or tumors. In a few cases, it is caused by ectopic pregnancy rupture, corpus luteum rupture, pelvic abscess, chocolate cyst, and ovarian cancer. Therefore, physiological pelvic effusion needs to be treated actively.

What to do if you have pelvic fluid accumulation in early pregnancy

In the early stages of pregnancy, some pregnant women discover through B-ultrasound that they have pelvic effusion. Pelvic effusion in the early stages of pregnancy will naturally cause panic in pregnant women. They are mainly worried about whether the pelvic effusion will affect the fetus. In fact, if it is physiological pelvic effusion, it will not affect the fetus. The fluid in such pelvic effusion is generally less and will be gradually absorbed and mostly disappear naturally.

However, if it is pathological pelvic effusion, it will affect the fetus. Once the pregnant mother is diagnosed with pathological pelvic effusion, she must not take medicine on her own, but go to a regular hospital for treatment according to the doctor's instructions.
