9. Prognosis
A diagnosis of Bartholin's cysts is very rarely a major medical issue since this condition isn't considered life-threatening. In many cases, a cyst can resolve on its own, but even if minor surgical intervention is necessary, it usually requires no more than an outpatient visit at a gynecologist's office.
Cysts that turn into abscesses can become extremely painful and cause complications such as fever or movement difficulties, but they can usually be resolved within weeks with minor drainage surgery.1‘Bartholin’s Gland Cyst: Causes & Treatment,’ Familydoctor.org Staff. https://familydoctor.org/condition/bartholins-gland-cyst/,4‘Bartholin Gland Cyst,’ https://www.uofmhealth.org/health-library/tw2685,5Omole, 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
