Wikipedia
Nabothian cyst
A nabothian cyst (or nabothian follicle) is a mucus-filled cyst on the surface of the cervix. They are most often caused when stratified squamous epithelium of the ectocervix (portion nearest to the vagina) grows over the simple columnar epithelium of the endocervix (portion nearest to the uterus). This tissue growth can block the cervical crypts (subdermal pockets usually 2–10 mm in diameter), trapping cervical mucus inside the crypts.

nabothian cyst
A Nabothian cyst is a small, benign (noncancerous), fluid-filled bump located on the surface of the cervix, which is the lower part of the uterus that connects to the vagina. These cysts are mucus-filled and usually appear as small white bumps. They are generally harmless and often discovered during routine pelvic exams. Most women experience no symptoms, but if the cysts become large, they may cause discomfort during sex or interfere with menstruation.
