What causes bartholins cyst? can chalmdyia cause the cyst itself or just infect it? a lot of conflicting info on the internet.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bartholin's cyst: Bartholin's glands are adjacent to the vaginal outlet. When their duct is blocked (by numerous causes) they back up and form a cyst which can become secondarily infected with a variety of organisms. It is not generally caused by Chlamydia or other infections.
