Bartholin cysts glands are small, pea-sized glands located on either side of the vaginal opening. Their function is to secrete mucus that lubricates the vulvar tissues. When the ducts of these glands become blocked, fluid accumulates, forming a Bartholin cyst. In many cases, cysts remain small and asymptomatic, resolving spontaneously or with conservative care. However, certain scenarios warrant surgical intervention. This blog explores when to opt for surgical treatment of Bartholin cysts, outlines the available surgical options, and guides you through preparation and recovery.
