7. Detection

Typically, people won't need a gynecologist appointment to detect a Nabothian cyst since it doesn't cause issues.9‘Nabothian Cysts.’ Sifaka.cs.uiuc.edu, University of Illinois , sifaka.cs.uiuc.edu/~yuelu2/opinionintegration/health/Nabothian/cyst.html. In most cases, people discover they have a Nabothian cyst during a routine pelvic examination.

If a gynecologist discovers one, there's usually no need for further testing. In rare circumstances, a gynecologist will perform a colposcopy to evaluate the pateint's cervix. The doctor recommends this only if the cyst has an abnormal appearance or size.2‘Nabothian Cysts.’ Harvard Health, Harvard Health Publishing , www.health.harvard.edu/a/to/z/nabothian-cysts-a-to-z.
