I had a bartholin cyst removal for the second time around. First time i had it when I was  21 y.o. Bartholin cyst is a recurring cyst. and after 7 years I had it again and I underwent another surgery just 2 weeks ago. It is a benign cyst and every woman has bartholyn glands and when infected, it develops to a cyst. I might still have bartholin cyst in the future but it wont grow back on the same area where the cyst have been removed.

Do you possibly mean a Bartholin cyst?  Is it located on the genitals close to the vagina?
