Cervical cyst hypertrophy and hardness

The enlargement and hardening of cervical Nabothian cyst may be the result of long-term accumulation of secretions in the cyst, inflammatory stimulation or tissue fibrosis. It is usually a benign lesion, but other risks need to be ruled out through examination.

Cervical Nabothian cysts are small cystic lesions caused by blockage of cervical glands, which mostly occur in women of childbearing age. The hypertrophy of the cyst may be related to multiple factors, including the gradual enlargement of the cyst after chronic cervical inflammation causes gland obstruction, or the thickening of the cyst wall causes hardening. Cysts usually have no obvious symptoms, but if there are abnormal vaginal discharge, contact bleeding, lower abdominal pain and other manifestations, you should be alert to the possibility of other cervical lesions and seek medical attention in time. The diagnosis is usually confirmed through gynecological examination and B-ultrasound. If necessary, the doctor will recommend cervical cell examination or histopathology to rule out risks such as cervical cancer. Whether hypertrophic and hardened cysts need treatment depends on the symptoms and whether it affects health.

For mild or asymptomatic cysts, an observation and follow-up strategy can be adopted, and excessive treatment is not necessary. However, if the cyst continues to grow, is accompanied by infection or has obvious symptoms, minimally invasive surgery, cryotherapy, and laser surgery can be selected for treatment. Minimally invasive surgery discharges the contents of the cyst through a small incision, is less invasive, and has a quick recovery; cryotherapy and laser treatment are suitable for more severe inflammation or cyst tissue mutations. To avoid cyst recurrence, it is recommended to maintain good living habits, such as ensuring the cleanliness of the vulva, avoiding frequent use of vaginal washes, and regular gynecological examinations.
