Are the pathologies of pelvic effusion and pelvic inflammatory disease different?

When people have pelvic inflammation and pelvic effusion, it is important to distinguish between the two completely different things. Pelvic inflammatory disease at the beginning will eventually lead to pelvic effusion. Different symptoms will appear during the evolution of the disease. Usually pelvic effusion will lead to constipation and fallopian tube blockage, while pelvic inflammation usually causes abdominal pain and abdominal heaviness, and will be accompanied by symptoms of frequent urination and urgency.

Pelvic effusion

First of all, it is not a disease or a type of disease, but a description of the female pelvic phenomenon, which refers to the presence of fluid in the female pelvic cavity.

Secondly, there are two reasons for the occurrence of pelvic effusion. The first is physiological pelvic effusion, and the second is pelvic effusion caused by disease.

Physiological pelvic effusion

It may be related to factors such as menstruation, ovulation period, constipation, etc. Generally, the depth of this pelvic fluid effusion is about 3cm, and most of the time it is ≤3cm. The body will absorb this effusion on its own.

If treatment is needed, your doctor will advise you at the end of the physical examination.
