Wikipedia

  1. nabothian follicle

    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.

    A Nabothian follicle, also known as a Nabothian cyst, is a small, benign growth that appears on the surface of the cervix. These cysts are filled with mucus that is secreted by the cervical glands and can vary in size. They are typically caused by the blockage of the cervical glands and are considered a normal part of the aging process. They usually don't cause any symptoms, nor do they require treatment unless they grow large and cause discomfort.
