Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: Detected cervical Nabothian cyst during physical examination. Not sure whether to treat it. If untreated, what discomforts will occur?Doctor's answer:
Cervical cyst is a type of chronic cervicitis and a common gynecological disease. Women with cervical cysts often experience increased vaginal discharge, which is mucopurulent in nature. The irritation from vaginal discharge can cause external genital itching and burning sensation. Symptoms such as intermenstrual bleeding and post-coital bleeding may also occur.I don’t know the exact size of your cyst, but scattered small cervical glandular cysts generally do not require treatment—just annual check-ups are sufficient. For dense small Nabothian cysts or larger cysts, physical treatments such as phototherapy, laser, microwave, or cryotherapy may be considered. These treatments usually require only one session and do not affect your daily life or work.
