welcome to HCM,i understand your concerns.
POD means pouch of Douglas which is empty space in the pelvis.

It is important because presence of fluid in this sac indicates that ovulation
has occurred and after this female is more fertile who wants to conceive.

It is not any disease,but in some infections also fluid will appear.
Do not worry it will not cause effect on pregnancy.
hope this will help you
thank you.
