Cervical cysts are a common physiological state of the cervix in gynecologic clinics, and in general they do not require surgery. Currently in clinical treatment, the main recommendation for cervical cysts is that they should not be overtreated because they are a normal physiological state of the cervix. The cervical epithelium can be divided into compound squamous epithelium and columnar epithelium, and these two types of epithelium are constantly interchanging throughout a woman’s life. When the squamous epithelium is converted to columnar epithelium, the new squamous epithelium can cover the glands of the columnar epithelium, thus blocking the glandular opening. As the secretions accumulate in the cervical glands, the glands gradually increase in size and can form cervical cysts. It is important to note that if the cervical cysts are large and thus block the cervical canal, then surgical treatment is recommended for this type of cervical cyst at the local obstetrics and gynecology clinic. It is also recommended that women undergo regular screening for cervical cancer at the OB/GYN clinic to avoid delays in the diagnosis and treatment of cervical cancer. In summary, most cervical cysts do not require surgical treatment, but if they are too large in size, surgical treatment may be an option.
