General & Family Physician,  's  Response
You should not worry yet as the report has not Confirmed any thing.. I think you have a bartholin cyst not a polyp. Polyps originate in mucous membrane not in skin as you have written polyp in exterior of vagina.There is no restriction of having intercourse. Tfeatment, if i have to treat such a patient i will advice incision and drainage with a catheter left in as a drainage tube that is called Marsupilization or laser treatment. Antibiotics are not usefull.
