How uterine cysts are formed

  The body of the uterus does not usually form cysts; the cervix, because of chronic cervical inflammation over time, can form localized cysts called cervical nidus cysts.  Cervical nuchal translucency is a very common gynecological disease, which is a pathological change of chronic inflammation of the cervix like cervical hypertrophy, cervical erosion and cervical polyps, also known as cervical glandular cysts. During the healing process of cervical erosion, new squamous epithelium covers the mouth of the cervical ducts or extends into the ducts, blocking them. The connective tissue around the glandular ducts becomes hyperplastic or scarred to compress the glandular ducts, narrowing or even blocking the ducts, and the drainage of glandular secretions is obstructed and retained to form cysts. During gynecological examination, several small greenish-white cysts of different sizes, ranging from a few millimeters to several centimeters, containing colorless mucus, can be seen protruding from the surface of the cervix. Most of the cysts grow slowly, and if they are infected, they have a white or yellowish appearance of small vesicles.  Cervical cyst is a benign gynecological disease, most cervical cysts have no clinical symptoms and are mostly found occasionally during checkups, sometimes they can disappear on their own, no need to be overly nervous and no need for treatment, only annual gynecological checkups are needed.
