Selected answer:correcting the English
Explanation:
Do you just want the English corrected? I would say:
I want to conceive, but my ultrasound indicates that fluid is present in my posterior cul-de-sac. Is this a problem?

(I am not a medical expert, so I cannot offer any opinion on it from that point of view)

  -> Well, if Ellyn is French, I suspect it means rectum. But as I said, I am not a medical expert.
agree  Will Matter: Our esteemed colleague, Mr. Barnett, IS a doctor and his advice is very good. If a rewrite is what she wants, your version is perfectly acceptable.
