    Uploaded by

    Dr. Anas yasin
    The document discusses Bartholin cysts, which are benign enlargements of the Bartholin glands located in the vestibule near the lower part of the labia majora. Bartholin cysts are most common in individuals assigned female at birth who have female external genitalia. They are usually caused by obstruction of the ductal region leading to accumulation of secreted fluid, or by sexually transmitted infections like chlamydia or gonorrhea. Trauma from childbirth can also cause cysts. Symptoms include a non-painful swelling of the labia majora that is tender if the cyst becomes larger.
