Hello,
thanks for using health care magic.

Fluid in the pouch of Douglas (POD) is a common finding in people with chronic pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). PID generally are due to sexually transmissible disease with Chlamydia being the most incriminated.

PID presents with lower abdominal pains, vaginal discharges, painful menses, fever etc. Treatment has to be early with appropriate antibiotics else complications such as difficulty in conceiving, ectopic pregnancies etc will set in, in the long run.

Hope this helps you.
Best regards
Dr Achuo
