Does pelvic fluid accumulation affect pregnancy?
Disease description:
I am planning to have a child, but my pre-pregnancy checkup indicated that I have pelvic effusion. I would like to ask the doctor whether pelvic effusion affects pregnancy.

Whether pelvic effusion affects pregnancy needs to be analyzed according to the specific situation:
1. Physiological pelvic effusion: This type of effusion commonly occurs in women after ovulation or during early pregnancy. The amount of effusion is generally small and often resolves naturally. Small amounts of physiological pelvic effusion typically do not affect pregnancy or cause adverse effects on the fetus.
2. Pathological pelvic effusion: This type of effusion is usually caused by gynecological conditions such as pelvic inflammatory disease or endometriosis. The amount of fluid may be significant and may be accompanied by noticeable symptoms such as abdominal pain and fever. Pathological pelvic effusion may affect pregnancy, as the inflammation could lead to fallopian tube adhesions or blockages, which may interfere with egg release and the transport of fertilized eggs, thereby reducing the chances of conception.
