ANSWER from experts
Women health is pretty complicated especially during pregnancy. There are several health conditions which could become a big problem during pregnancy. Small Bartholin cyst usually is not a big problem for women but it could become a problem during pregnancy because of several reasons including vaginal infections and increased sensitivity to the infections during pregnancy.
If you are pregnant and have a Bartholin cyst, your treatment will depend on how severe your symptoms are and whether you have an infection.
When possible, any Bartholin cyst treatment (including natural remedies, draining and/or surgical interventions) is delayed until after your baby is born. Most doctors recommend treatment of the Bartholin cyst after delivery. This is because the genital area has increased blood flow during pregnancy and bleeding from local vessels is more likely. At the same time the large Bartholin cyst could need to be drained to prevent problems during normal delivery. If Cesarean section is planned, the treatment of the Bartholin cyst better to postpone for after delivery period.
