What is a Nabothian cyst?

Nabothian cysts are tiny cysts that form on the surface of your cervix. It is also known as a cervical canal. They are filled with mucus that is secreted by the cervical glands. Nabothian cysts usually form when the mucus-producing glands in your cervix are coated with skin cells and become clogged. Physical trauma and childbirth to the cervix can cause a Nabothian cyst. During childbirth, it grows on the mucus gland and traps mucus, causing cysts to form.  Physical trauma around the cervix can cause excess tissue to develop on the top of mucus glands during the healing process and trap mucus, which can cause these cysts to occur.

They are usually small and do not present with clinical symptoms. Mostly cysts frequently resolve on their own with no need for medical intervention. In some rare cases, they can grow into large cysts that may cause compression of surrounding viscera and start causing symptoms. Such large cysts require medical attention and timely treatment.

• If you have a condition called adenoma malignum, then you might be at higher risk of developing these cysts. This health condition is a type of neoplasia that affects mucus production in your cervix.
• The skin cells in your cervix divide and increase in number after the injury in that area. The new cells help to repair any damage to the tissue in your cervix. These new skin cells can block the glands in the cervix, trapping mucus there and forming a nabothian cyst.
