Will a woman's sex life be affected if she has had surgery for Bartholinitis?

Can women still have sex if they suffer from Bartholinitis? Many people may not know much about Bartholinitis. Experts say that it is actually a common gynecological inflammation of the vulva and genitals. The Bartholin glands are located 1/3 deep below the labia majora on both sides. Due to the special anatomical location, pathogens can easily invade and cause Bartholinitis. So, will women's sex life be affected if they have surgery for Bartholinitis?

Experts point out that Bartholinitis is a common external genital disease in women. People often know that this disease is an infectious disease, but they do not pay special attention to the relationship between this disease and sexually transmitted diseases. For some people with long-term Bartholinitis, they do not undergo sexually transmitted disease examinations, delaying the best time for treatment. In fact, due to the increase in the number of patients with sexually transmitted diseases in recent years, complications are constantly increasing. The most common complication of female patients is Bartholinitis. So this disease is related to sexually transmitted diseases.

Patients with Bartholinitis cannot have sex. Bartholin glands, also called Bartholin glands, are located behind the labia majora on both sides of women. They are about the size of soybeans, and their gland ducts open between the hymen and labia minora. Due to the special location of the Bartholin glands, if women have unclean sexual intercourse or masturbation, it is easy for pathogens to invade the Bartholin glands and cause Bartholinitis.

In case of acute inflammation, you need to take rest and prohibit sexual intercourse. Use antibiotics appropriately. Hot compresses, sitz baths or other heat therapies can be applied locally. After the abscess is formed, it can be incised and drained. If a cyst is formed due to chronic inflammation, different methods can be adopted according to the degree of severity: if the cyst is small and asymptomatic, no treatment is required; when the cyst is large or recurrent, a Bartholin's gland cyst incision ostomy or cyst removal should be performed. At present, most people advocate ostomy, which is a simpler method with less damage and can restore gland function after surgery. Therefore, it is concluded that you cannot have sex if Bartholin's gland inflammation is not cured. You can have sex after the surgery is cured and it will not cause any impact.

The treatment of Bartholinitis should try to identify the pathogen, mainly with drug treatment, and if abscess is formed, surgical incision and drainage can be considered. If there are other complications, attention should be paid to improving the general condition.
