How are glandular cysts treated?

Many people don’t know much about glandular cysts. In fact, they can include different cysts, and the common cervical glandular cyst is one of them. It can affect women’s reproductive health and sexual life, so it is necessary to focus on scientific conditioning.

1. Cervical glandular cyst is also called cervical Nabothian cyst. Cervical Nabothian cyst (also called "Nabothian cyst") is a manifestation of chronic cervicitis, just like cervical erosion and cervical polyps. Since it is an inflammation, it is not serious, but it should be emphasized that chronic cervicitis is closely related to cervical cancer. Under the stimulation of long-term inflammation, a small number of patients with chronic cervicitis have a tendency to malignant transformation, so it still requires high attention. It is mainly necessary to do a cervical smear examination every year to exclude cervical cancer and precancerous diseases.

2. As for its treatment, the effect of medication is not ideal. It will not heal itself without treatment. Treatment will not affect future sexual life. For scattered and relatively small cervical gland cysts, no treatment is generally required, and only annual examinations are required; for dense and small Nabothian cysts or relatively large cysts, physical treatments such as phototherapy, laser, microwave, and self-coagulation knife can be considered;

3. For those that are larger and protrude from the surface of the cervix, electrosurgical excision can be considered. Our department has a LEEP knife, which directly expands the vagina under the dilator and performs the operation after disinfection. The doctor can directly see the condition of the cervix. It has the advantages of delicate surgery, little damage to the surrounding soft tissue, less pain, short time, fast recovery after surgery, no scars, and no impact on fertility. It can achieve very delicate surgical effects that traditional electrosurgical knife cannot achieve.
