    (Ladies) Embarrassing cyst...trusting doc

    Went to doc on Monday afternoon with lump thing on labia - found it after I wore a pad and got irritated...she said it was a sebaceous cyst and to use hot packs. Gave me antibiotics if it starts to hurt. Currently trying to get it to come to a head. I said is this anything to worry about, she said "NO"

    Scared. I feel like maybe doc misdiagnosed because I have GAD of course...anyone offer reassurance?

    Thanks...

    Ugh, I get those sometimes too. They're annoying and uncomfortable but t will go away in a few days.

    I have had something similar to you, I was worried out of my mind, the Dr said to me it was a cyst and it will go, guess what? It did.......give it time, cysts are quite common down below for woman

    p.s. DONT fiddle with it......they could get bigger and infected......

    I regularly get them in the hot months. Sitz baths are good and help it go away.

    I've totally had that before. They can get painful. Sometimes I can get one to pop and other times, not but it ever goes away.

    I have one of these at the moment! Visited the GP terrified of vulval cancer, and she told me it's most probably a Bartholin's cyst and I have now got antibiotics and been advised to bathe in Epsom salts. I asked if it could be anything more sinister (she knows I have HA) and she said a definite no. Trying to stay calm about it and not google lol.

    Yep. I get those all the time. It's embarrassing but very common for women
