Hey doctor. Can someone please say me who gets a bartholin cyst (abscess painful obe)? What may be the causes? Can vaginal folliculitis cause it? Or razor removal of hair can cause them? Can any female get them. Or only females who are sexually active or were in the past can get them? Is it true that virgin females can not get bartholin cyst (abscess painful one) can an abscess can be treated without going for surgery?

This is caused by blocking of fluid meant for lubrication of vagina. It can happen to young as well as elder females.
