6. Who's Affected

Bartholin's cysts exclusively affect women and usually occur during the reproductive years of a woman's life. They can, however, present at any sexually mature age and in women who are past menopause.

These cysts are not specifically correlated with any particular sexual behavior and can be caused by non-STI pathogens in many cases. Some women tend to be more likely to get Bartholin's cysts than others or to have them appear again.3‘Bartholin’s Cyst,’ https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/bartholins-cyst/,5Omole, Folashade; Simmons, Barbara; Hacker,Yolanda. ‘Management Of Bartholin’s Duct Cyst and Gland Abscess,’ American Family Physician, https://www.aafp.org/afp/2003/0701/p135.html
