Bartholin's gland - looks like a hollow round formation the size of a pea. A thin excretory duct emerges from it to the surface of the skin. Education is among the fat cells that fill the labia majora. In a healthy state, the gland is soft and rather elastic, it is difficult to determine by palpation.
From the inside, the formation is lined with secretory epithelium - a special type of cell that produces a secret. The mucus produced is collected inside Rhinocort. With sexual arousal, or when the gland is completely filled, it goes out through the ducts.
The secret facilitates the introduction into the vagina of the penis, protects its vestibule from damage during frictions (Latin frictio - friction). If the work of the gland is disturbed, the woman will feel dryness, discomfort during sexual intercourse.
The causes of inflammation of the Bartholin glands are sexual infections, weakened immunity. Most often, the disease manifests itself: in the off-season, after Rhinocort infectious diseases, periods of prolonged stress. An unbalanced diet can also cause bartholinitis, because the body will receive less vitamins and minerals necessary for normal functioning.
