When a woman accumulates fluid init does not always mean that something extraordinary happens in her body. This may well be a normal phenomenon associated with the cyclical nature of the processes occurring in the body of a woman. But, unfortunately, often such a symptom speaks of a disease.
At the norm behind the uterus in the small pelvis canthere is a bit of liquid. It is also quite natural, when, after ovulation, there is free liquid behind the uterus, which is collected there in a much larger quantity than on normal days. This is one of the main indicators that ovulation has occurred. When the dominant (larger) follicle bursts in the ovary during ovulation, its contents can enter the pelvic area and accumulate behind the uterus. After a while, it is resorbed (absorbed) and is soon not detected with ultrasound.
During menstruation may also appearfluid in the anterior space (the so-called blood flow into the abdominal cavity). It does not threaten a woman. Simply, the endometrium can accidentally move with menstrual blood into the peritoneum during menstruation.
In addition to these, these are quite natural andinevitable cyclical moments in a woman's life, like menstruation and ovulation, fluid in the anterior space can accumulate in the case of diseases. If there is an inflammatory process in the female genitalia, this, undoubtedly, can lead to the appearance of an inflammatory exudate behind the uterus. In acute endometritis, especially in the postabortion period, free fluid can also be collected in the small pelvis.
Scans of ultrasound can detect such a liquid andwith the development of ovarian apoplexy, peritonitis, ascites, purulent salpingitis, hemoperitoneum, the occurrence of pelvic peritonitis, endometriosis and other diseases.
So, when endomentrious cysts are formed,pains in the abdomen become stronger, irritation of the peritoneum. As a result, the cysts are microperforated and their contents can pour into the abdominal cavity, which leads to the appearance of free fluid behind the uterus.
Fluids accumulate in the anterior space and with heavy bleeding in the abdominal cavity.
With a purulent salpingitis, a breakthrough is possibleaccumulated pus from the pyosalpinx into the peritoneum. In this case, diffuse peritonitis develops, which requires urgent surgical intervention. Fortunately, such that pus out of the fallopian tube into the uterus or the pelvic area, happens rarely.
Ultrasound of ultrasound can show and presence in the abdominalcavity pelvioperitonitis, in which peritoneal space can also peritoneal fluid. Its number can range from extremely small to very large.
If in the cavity of the small pelvis free fluidis collected, it can be evidence of the latent course of an oncological disease, for example, an ovarian tumor. Often the development of a cancerous tumor is accompanied by ascites, a congestion of the transudate (fluid) in the abdominal cavity.
If an ultrasound in a woman of childbearing agefound a free fluid in the small pelvis and outside the uterus is a fetal egg surrounded by blood clots, the doctor can diagnose "Ectopic pregnancy."
To the accumulation of fluid can cause diseases of other organs located in the abdominal cavity, for example, the liver.
Usually a woman learns that she has appearedfluid in the anterior space, during the ultrasound. If the disease is hidden, this is such a valuable diagnostic method that will first point to the existing health problem and help the doctor to correctly diagnose the condition of female genital organs.
If you have an ultrasound studyfound fluid in the anterior space, and there is no other evidence of ultrasound about the presence of other signs of the disease, you can breathe freely. You, most likely, are healthy.
