1. Bartholinitis is a problem that many women encounter, and it can have an adverse impact on normal family life. So, how to treat Bartholinitis? The cause of Bartholinitis is unclear and the treatment effect is not ideal. Bartholinitis can be treated with medication and surgery. The following is a detailed introduction on how to treat Bartholinitis. For patients with mild lesions or short course of illness, drug treatment can be used; for patients with severe lesions or those who are not responsive to drug treatment, surgical treatment can be used. However, the specific treatment method depends on the individual situation of the patient.

2. Drug treatment There are many options for drug treatment, and this method requires following the doctor's advice. Other treatments include warm water sitz baths and lubricating the vestibule with liquid paraffin before intercourse. In recent years, it has been reported that local or intramuscular injection of interferon α has a certain therapeutic effect, with an effective rate of 50%. How to treat Bartholinitis? Some patients benefit from antihistamines. Tricyclic antidepressants can be used because they have central analgesic effects and are also effective for secondary depression.

3. How to treat Bartholinitis surgically? Surgical methods include vestibuloplasty and vestibulectomy (modified perineoplasty). The latter has better efficacy with an effective rate of 60% to 90%. Vestibularoplasty is a longitudinal incision of the vaginal wall, especially the posterior wall mucosa, at the vaginal opening, and then the vaginal wall mucosa and vulvar skin are horizontally sutured to enlarge the vaginal opening. Vestibularectomy is the removal of the mucosa at the vestibule pain site, and then the partial vaginal mucosa is surreptitiously separated to cover it. Partial vestibulectomy or total vestibulectomy can be selected according to the condition.
