Hello Anuradha, Thanks for reaching out about your concern with the Bartholin cyst. So, a Bartholin cyst happens when the duct of the Bartholin gland gets blocked, which can lead to fluid buildup, swelling, pain, and redness on one side of the vaginal opening.
Since you’re in Canada and might not have easy access to Ayurvedic doctors, I’m here to share some safe home remedies and herbal options that can help ease the pain, reduce inflammation, and support your healing process.
✅ HOME REMEDIES
☑️ WARM SITZ BATH (IMPORTANT)
Take a warm bath that covers your hip area for about 15 minutes, 2–3 times a day.
This can help soften the cyst, reduce swelling, and sometimes even allow it to drain on its own.
For added benefits, toss in ½ tsp of turmeric powder or 1 tsp of Triphala powder into the water for some extra antibacterial and anti-inflammatory goodness.
☑️ TURMERIC CASTOR OIL PASTE
Combine turmeric powder with warm castor oil to create a smooth paste.
Gently apply this to the swollen or red area (just on the outside). Turmeric helps lower the risk of infection, while castor oil can assist in shrinking the cyst. Aim to do this once a day before bed.
☑️ CASTOR OIL COMPRESS
Warm up a bit of castor oil, soak a cotton cloth in it, and place it over the cyst.
Then, put a warm water bag or hot compress on top for about 10 minutes. Repeat this daily (evenings work best). This method helps draw out inflammation and alleviate pain.
☑️ FENUGREEK (METHI SEEDS)
Soak 1 tsp of fenugreek seeds in water overnight, and drink the water the next morning.
Alternatively, you can boil the seeds in water, strain it, and drink that. Fenugreek acts as a natural anti-inflammatory and helps ward off infections.
✅ HERBAL SUPPLEMENT (easy to find online in Canada)
1. Turmeric (Curcumin) capsules – take 500 mg once daily after meals.
2. Triphala capsules – 1 daily at bedtime with warm water (great for detox and preventing constipation).
3. Kanchanar Guggulu – beneficial for cysts, take 1 tablet twice daily (only if you can find it online).
✅ DIET AND LIFESTYLE MODIFICATION
Eat light & warm food – khichdi, vegetable soups, steamed veggies. Use spices like turmeric, ginger, black pepper, garlic in cooking. Drink lukewarm water instead of cold. Wear loose cotton clothes – avoid tight pants/underwear. Maintain good hygiene – wash intimate area with plain warm water, avoid chemical soaps.
❌ Avoid heavy dairy (cheese, curd, ice cream), fried & oily foods, excess sweets – these increase Kapha & make cyst worse. ❌ Avoid sitting for long hours in one posture – take breaks.
✅IMPORTANT NOTE
If the cyst becomes very painful, rapidly enlarges, or starts forming pus/abscess with fever, home remedies may not be enough. In such cases, medical drainage or antibiotics are necessary. Do not try to puncture or press the cyst yourself.
Repeat daily for 7–10 days and monitor changes. Many women experience reduced swelling and pain with this routine.
Wishing you a good health😊
Warm Regards Dr Snehal Vidhate
