Bartholin’s Cyst and Abscess Treatment
The Bartholin’s glands are located on each side of the vaginal opening. These pea-sized glands secrete fluid that helps lubricate the vagina. Sometimes the openings of these glands become obstructed, causing fluid to back up into the gland. The result is a relatively painless swelling called a Bartholin’s cyst. A Bartholin’s abscess may occur if the cyst fluid becomes infected. Bartholin’s gland cysts and gland abscesses are common problems in women of reproductive age.

Polyps are areas that grow a little too much. These polyps can be as small as a sesame seed or as large as a golf ball. Rarely, polyps can grow to the size of an orange! In addition to uterine polyps, women can get a polyp on the edges of their cervix, in the area of their vagina, or even the ovaries.
Learn MoreVaginoplasty

Gynecology FAQs
For more information about our gynecologic care, services, facilities, and more, please call (212) 988-2111.
Though each patient’s well-woman visit may vary based on their own needs, an annual visit usually includes:
- A general physical exam that includes a pap smear and pelvic exam
- A discussion with your doctor about your general health
- Advice about what screenings you are due for, based on your risk factors and your age
- Blood and/or urine tests, depending on which tests you need that year
We hire our doctors and care providers not only for their medical expertise, but also for their incredible empathy with patients and ability to explain even the most complicated medical matters. Our whole team, from our front-desk staff to our doctors, work to make Viva Eve a place you feel good about coming back to, whether you’re here once a year or once a week.
Procedures that usually can be performed in our Viva Eve offices include:
Endometrial biopsies
Hysteroscopies
IUD placements
Colposcopies
Incision & Drainage
Treatment for genital warts
Suction Dilation & Curettage
Many forms of hysteroscopy
Sonohysterosalpingogram
Saline-infused Sonograms
Diagnostic Sonogram
Viva Eve offers integrated specialty care with multiple specialists under one roof. We also have long-term relationships with other specialist practices, including a highly-rated infertility practice. This approach helps provide a continuous line of care where you benefit from collaborative relationships between your doctors.
We recommend that women start including Pap smears in their well-woman visit at the age of 21 (or earlier if sexually active). If you’ve had a full hysterectomy, you don’t need any Pap smear tests. The general guidelines for women over 21 years old is that they should at least do the following:
21-29: every 3 years
30-65: every 3-5 years (if your Pap smear and HPV tests are negative)
65 and older: you may no longer need Pap smear tests
