Severe burning in the skenes gland

Hi all. My 17 years old daughter that is virgin ad had no sex of any kind has Severe burning in the skenes gland and nobody knows the cause. We’ve visited many doctors and most of them prescribed some antibiotics but those caused nausea. Uristat and ice pack are the only ones that help her but that is only short term solution. Have any of you had any experience with this kind of symptoms??? Does anyone here know what can I do to help her?? Thank you.

I have the burning in the skenes gland too. Has your daughters’ urine pH been checked? Eating mostly low ox foods and low carbs with no sugar is what helps me. I also took Spirulina which is all natural and with no additives or chemicals which can also bother us. I really feel for your daughter especially since she is so young… Yea, one more thing I remembered - phosphates can do the same thing as the oxalates and cause irritation so you could check that too.

To anyone with this condition I would like to help with some confusion. I first noticed my problem when I was 9 months pregnant with my first child. I was almost 20 years old. I brought it to my doctors attention at a military hospital. They correctly diagnosed. my husband was discharged from the miltary due to medical reasons and due to lack of medical insurance I continued to suffer for a year and a half.
Once I had medical coverage I was refered to a Urologist by my Gyno.
He diagnosed it as a Skenes Gland cyst. I went in for Outpatient sugery under general anethesia and sent home with a Foley Catheter and Vicodin for a week. I have not had any problems with the cyst for over a year now. When I was inverstigating my condition there wasnt much about it.
My sympoms included: Painful intercourse, sometimes pressure while sitting, and because it was so close to my urethra it made my stream of urine go to the right. The cyst was visible from the out side and was about the size of a large marble.

Hello bellissima!

Thank you for sharing your expirience with us. Hopefully, it will help some of the girls/women realize their problem and a possible way of solving it!

Thanx heaps!

I've had the same problem for over a year. I've seen a lot of incompetent doctors in the pst year and the problem has just gotten worse. Now I can't pee at all. Do you guys have that problem? I have an appt tomorrow about it, but today I can't pee! What can I do?

I just got back from the gyno and he diagnosed me with a swollen skene's gland. He said it is not common. My symptoms were first I had a "tumor" like cyst on the inside of the vagina right behind the pubic bone area. It was there for quite sometime and for some reason I thought it was "normal"? I then started to worry that it wasn't. I had about 3 occasions where my urination was very low flow only upon waking. Later in the morning it was normal flow. Lately it has been more sensitive with pressure and groin pain. My regular PCP was worried and referred me to the gyno. He very matter of factly stated it was not "cancer" and put me antiobiotics for a week. Just like that! He next said that if after a week it is still there, he will have to "operate" and drain the fluid via a catheter. He also said if I did nothing for about another year it my "pop" and drain on it's own. All I can say is that I've never heard of it and am relieved it is not something more serious!
