A Bartholin cyst occurs when the ducts of the Bartholin glands, located on either side of the vaginal opening, become blocked, leading to fluid buildup and swelling. During pregnancy, hormonal changes and increased blood flow can heighten the risk of developing or worsening these cysts, potentially causing discomfort that affects daily life.
At Unittas Hospital, we offer expert Bartholin cyst treatment during pregnancy in Chennai, with our obstetric and gynecologic specialists providing compassionate, pregnancy-safe care to manage Bartholin cysts effectively, ensuring both maternal comfort and fetal well-being. We prioritize conservative approaches to minimize interventions while addressing symptoms promptly.
Our specialists provide pregnancy-safe Bartholin cyst treatment
Call Now: 044-4012-4012The Bartholin glands produce lubricating fluid for the vagina, but blockage from infection, trauma, or debris can trap this fluid, forming a painless cyst. If bacteria enter, it may progress to an abscess, a painful, pus-filled swelling. In pregnancy, these issues are more common due to elevated estrogen levels that alter gland function and vaginal flora.
Most cysts are benign and resolve without complications, but timely management prevents escalation, especially when mobility and comfort are essential for expecting mothers.
Several factors contribute to Bartholin cyst formation, amplified during gestation:
Recognizing these triggers allows our team at Unittas Hospital to offer preventive guidance tailored to your trimester.

Generally not, but early evaluation ensures it doesn't contribute to discomfort or infection that could affect early development.
No direct link exists; proper management prevents any indirect risks from untreated infection.
Increased estrogen and vaginal discharge create an environment prone to duct blockage and bacterial entry.
Avoid them without consultation; our experts recommend only pregnancy-approved topicals if needed.
Monitor for signs of infection and contact us immediately; spontaneous rupture often resolves symptoms but requires follow-up.
Rarely, if large and unresolved; we can plan for episiotomy adjustments or C-section if necessary in advanced cases.
Light activities like walking are fine; avoid high-impact exercises until swelling subsides to prevent irritation.
Typically 1-2 weeks post-resolution, but we advise waiting until pain-free and cleared by your provider.
Not recommended due to unproven safety; we reserve advanced procedures for postpartum.
A balanced diet with anti-inflammatory foods like omega-3s supports immune function and reduces flare-up risks.
Indirectly yes, by lowering immunity; our wellness programs include stress-relief techniques tailored for expectant mothers.
If it impairs mobility or causes contractions, seek care promptly to avoid labor complications.
