Patient's question:
Problems with Bartholin's cyst Does removal of Bartholin's glands affect fertility The daily drainage of the stoma is really unbearable Are there any other treatments available The stoma was done immediately after the previous illness The drainage was done for 10 days and anti-inflammatory injections were given for 15 days After a week, it recurred The day before yesterday, the check-up said to do the stoma againDoctor's answer:
Hello, after reading your description, you have a Bartholin's gland cyst. This condition does not affect fertility. You previously underwent a fistulostomy for drainage, and it has recently recurred. In this case, it is best to continue with drainage.Advice: The Bartholin's glands secrete mucus. During sexual activity, the secreted mucus helps to lubricate the vagina. When the glands' openings become blocked, the secreted mucus cannot be expelled, leading to a cyst. If this is not treated promptly, it can cause infection. Currently, it is recommended that you continue with incision and drainage while also maintaining good hygiene, avoiding baths, and using cephalosporin antibiotics for prophylactic treatment. I hope my answer is helpful to you. Wishing you good health.
