Can Bartholin's cysts that don't hurt be left untreated?..

Patient's question:

Can Bartholin's cysts that don't hurt be left untreated?

Doctor's answer:

Cysts can persist for a long time, remaining unchanged for years, and require only regular monitoring without treatment. If the cyst gradually grows and affects daily life, or if it repeatedly becomes infected, frequently forming abscesses, a Bartholin gland cystostomy can be performed. This method is simple, minimally invasive, and can still preserve the function of the gland.
