What are Nabothian Cysts?

Nabothian cysts are tiny sacs filled with mucous, present in the cervix of the uterus. Cervix, also called the cervical canal links the uterus to the vagina. This canal is about 1 inch long and allows menstrual blood to pass out from the uterus to the vagina and the sperm from the vagina to the uterus. Nabothian cysts are also called mucinous retention cysts or epithelial cysts. These cysts form when skin cells clog glands in the cervix.

What causes Nabothian Cysts?

The cervix of the uterus is lined with glands that produce mucous. This mucous helps in lubricating the vagina and also keeping it clean. When these mucous producing cells and glands are covered with normal skin, the mucous produced gets trapped inside the skin and a cyst forms. This can happen after childbirth and some other traumas. This causes a swelling or a bump in the cervix known as a nabothian cyst.

What are the risk factors for Nabothian Cysts?

Nabothian cysts are more likely to develop in childbearing age. Chances of nabothian cyst increase with pregnancy and childbirth. Any injury to the cervix and uterus can increase the chances of forming such cysts. Infections in the vagina or uterus can also lead to formation of these nabothian cysts.
