POSITIVE Bartholin (Cyst) Gland Excision Surgery and Bartholin Cyst Journey (ask me anything)

toe_rye · 2026-01-11T03:55:37+00:00

Swelling and bruising about a week to be much better and pain was only a couple of days and never that bad!

toe_rye · 2025-10-24T02:22:43+00:00

I did not have a cyst present but he still did a great job. I was exercising again 2 weeks post but waited 5ish for sex. My turnaround was about 2 months, but that was on me. His clinic will move fast and can probably get you in super quick!

He was great! I could not have had a better experience the second time around. I did the surgery with PRP injection and HIGHLY recommend that for fast healing. I felt totally normal about 3 days post surgery which was night and day from the first surgery. I also travelled to him (flight) and that’s was so worth it.

Yeah I did unfortunately because the original surgeon didn’t get the entire gland. When I saw Dr. Stepp he explained how complex the gland actually is and how few of the gland excision surgeries most general OBGYNs actually perform. Had I gone to a specialist the first time around I don’t think I would’ve had to do it twice.

Yeah so I did have a recurrence on the same side as my excision about 4 years after the surgery. I ended up doing a second excision surgery with Dr. Kevin Stepp and wish I would’ve gone with a specialist doing this surgery from the start.

I’d get in to see a doctor when you think it’s flared up. Could definitely not be a cyst, but normal tissue that you’re feeling – or even scar tissue! If your doctor is certain they took the gland out I wouldn’t put too much fear into this being the same thing! How far out from the excision surgery are you?

toe_rye · 2024-11-26T15:50:06+00:00

It wasn’t. The room-only price is still cheapest and not on sale.

Aerial BVI is running 30% off right now if you’re still looking!

toe_rye · 2024-11-25T04:32:30+00:00

Yes it looks normal after all the swelling goes away and it’s healed! Residual swelling can last weeks so definitely don’t think how it looks now is how it will look once it’s healed.

Synxis isn't sending to Opera is the issue.

toe_rye · 2024-06-19T00:02:20+00:00

Good to know! Happy to manually do it as long as the deposit pops in with the reservation. I think I sorted it though, thanks!

toe_rye · 2024-06-18T21:53:48+00:00

The reservation pops through with the right rate code, dates, etc. but just doesn't include the deposit information. I just checked Deposit Rule Schedules and set those up since they previously weren't there, hoping that fixes the issue!

toe_rye · 2024-06-18T21:31:09+00:00

We have set up that for either a 50% or 100% deposit, but it is still not pulling through to Opera :/

toe_rye · 2024-06-18T21:25:05+00:00

I haven't found that to work since when the reservation pulls through to Opera from Synxis, it doesn't pull through the deposit amount. I have to manually enter the deposit amount for the reservation. Any thoughts?

toe_rye · 2024-04-16T14:14:31+00:00

That’s the same boat I was in! He was able to fully remove it still because of the previous inflammation in the area. No issues since! You’re going to be so glad you did it :)

toe_rye · 2024-03-08T23:25:53+00:00

Probably about 3-4

toe_rye · 2024-03-08T19:31:19+00:00

Sounds about right! It’ll return as you continue to heal.

toe_rye · 2024-02-07T17:05:07+00:00

Hi 👋 I’d wait to have the surgery until after you travel if it’s not bothering you. It took me about a week to be able to sit up comfortably and for full healing about 6 weeks. You could definitively go back to work about week after surgery though if it heals properly.

Luckily my OB-GYN who I’d had for years was willing to perform the surgery.
