What is a Bartholin’s cyst?
A Bartholin’s cyst called a Bartholin’s duct cyst, is a small fluid filled sac just inside the opening of the vagina.Bartholins glands produce the fluid that helps lubricate the vagina. The glands become blocked and the fluid builds up to cause a CYST. If the fluid becomes infected, it will form pus and become a Bartholin’s abscess.
The cyst or abscess usually forms on one side of the vaginal opening.
We have a natural treatment to manage Bartholin’s cyst with the help of our Naturopaths, Nutritionists, and Homeopaths.
