A member asked:
What does it mean to have fluid around the cul de sac in males?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably nothing: The area you describe lies between the rectum and the bladder. A urologist is really the one to ask but it is at the lowest potion of the peritoneum. perhaps a few mililiters of fluid would naturally occur there.
