A Bartholin's gland cyst or abscess is diagnosed by a gynecological pelvic exam
A Bartholin's gland cyst may form in the gland itself or in the duct draining the gland
It usually ranges in size from 0.4-1.2 in. (1-3 cm), although some may grow much larger
Symptoms of an uninfected Bartholin's gland cyst include a painless jump on one side of the vulva area (most common symptom) and redness or swelling in the vulva area
It may go away without treatment
