A member asked:
What does it mean when theres a significant fluid collection in the pouch of douglas?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
This is the space between the uterus/vagina and the rectum. A small amount of fluid is often found in normal women. Fluid debris from rupture of an ovarian cyst or other events in the abdomen can accumulate there. The doc who knows the case is the best person to interpret what this means
