Is pelvic effusion of 15mm pelvic inflammatory disease?

1. Whether pelvic effusion of 15mm is pelvic inflammatory disease needs to be judged according to the specific situation. If it is caused by physiological factors, it is generally not pelvic inflammatory disease, but if it is caused by inflammatory infection, it is pelvic inflammatory disease, and you need to actively cooperate with the doctor for treatment after the disease.

2. Pelvic effusion includes physiological pelvic effusion and pathological pelvic effusion. Physiological pelvic effusion is caused by a small amount of menstrual blood flowing into the pelvic cavity during menstruation, or it may be caused by follicle rupture. Physiological pelvic effusion usually does not cause physical discomfort. This effusion will generally be absorbed by itself for a period of time and usually does not affect human health, so it is not pelvic inflammatory disease.

3. Pathological pelvic effusion can be caused by chronic salpingitis, chronic endometritis, pelvic inflammatory disease, etc. Repeated stimulation of pelvic inflammation can cause local congestion and secretion of inflammatory exudates, which will accumulate in the pelvic cavity and cause pelvic effusion. Therefore, pathological pelvic effusion is considered to be pelvic inflammatory disease. After the disease occurs, you can take amoxicillin capsules, cephalosporin capsules, azithromycin capsules, etc. orally under the guidance of a doctor. If necessary, you can also use pelvic puncture and drainage for treatment.

4. During the treatment, you should keep the vulva clean and change your underwear regularly, which will also help your body's recovery.
