What Does My MRI Scan Test Report Indicate?
There was an accumulation of cul de sac fluid seen during my IV ULTRASOUND. though it wasnt specidied if its pus or normal fluid but it alarmed me because this was seen also last 2010 IV ultrasound. My gynecologist gave me antibiotics cefixime 200 to treat an infection fiund during TMG. BUT she was silent about the accumulation of fluid. Please enlighten me.

Hello
Fluid in cul de sac may be due to many causes like physiological during ovulation,pelvic inflammatory disease(PID)etc.
This need clinical correlation and further investigations.
You may need routine hemogram,random blood sugar,urine RE/ME,specific test for pelvic inflammatory disease etc.
Aspiration of fluid and culture may be needed in selected cases.
Empirically you are rightly prescribed antibiotics.
Further treatment plan depend upon findings.
Take Care
