Specialist Cyst Management for Women in London
What Are Cysts?
A cyst is a sac-like structure filled with fluid or semi-solid material. In women, common types include Bartholin’s gland cysts, ovarian cysts (e.g., functional or dermoid), and sebaceous or epidermoid cysts in skin tissue.
Why Cyst Diagnosis Can Be Delayed in Women
Symptoms such as mild pain, pressure, or swelling are often mistaken for other gynecological issues. Our specialists—trained in women’s health—offer precise assessment and tailored treatment options to avoid misdiagnosis or unnecessary delay in care.
Symptoms of Cysts in Women
Noticeable swelling or lump in the pelvic or lower abdominal area
Discomfort during walking, sitting, or sexual activity
Dull aching, bloating, or sharper localized pain (depending on cyst type)
Treatment Options We Offer
Conservative Management
For Bartholin’s gland cysts: warm sitz baths can often support drainage and provide relief. For ovarian cysts: small, functional cysts may resolve on their own, monitored by regular ultrasound follow-ups.
Minimally Invasive Procedures
Bartholin’s cyst intervention via Word catheter placement (left in place for 2–4 weeks) or marsupialization shows a high success rate
Ovarian cysts may be removed laparoscopically, preserving ovarian function whenever safe and possible
Surgical Excision (Skin Cysts)
Pilar, epidermoid, or sebaceous cysts can often be fully removed under local anesthesia. Complete excision reduces recurrence and infection risk significantly
Catheter-based sclerotherapy—less invasive than surgery—has shown promising results in shrinking endometrial cysts while preserving fertility
