A member asked:

Gartner's duct cyst removal: are any incisions made in the abdomen or do they go in through the vagina? how long for healing? affect childbirth later?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Jeff Livingston answered

Specializes in Obstetrics and Gynecology

Vagina: This is a very simple surgery with only a vaginal incidion. The healing time is very rapid and should require no time off of work. It will have no effect on future pregnancy.
