[|AI|]  Hello, Welcome to Chat Doctor, Bartholins cyst is formed when a Catholics gland is blocked, causing a fluid-filled cyst to develop. Catholics cyst is not an infection, although it can be caused by an infection, inflammation or physical blockage to the Catholics ducts (tubes which lead from the glands to the vulva). If infection sets in, the result is a Catholics abscess. If the infection is severe or repeated a surgical procedure known as marsupialization may be required to stop further recurrences. It is a benign swelling of the gland, however a biopsy of the removed cyst will help in confirmation. Thank you.
