Bartholin's gland. The Bartholin's glands (also called Bartholin glands or greater vestibular glands) are two pea sized compound racemose glands located slightly posterior and to the left and right of the opening of the vagina. They secrete mucus to lubricate the vagina and are homologous to bulbourethral glands in males.
Bartholin Cyst and Abscess. 1  There are two Bartholin glands, located on each side of the vaginal opening at the level of the posterior fourchette, or at about the 4 oâclock and 8 oâclock position. 2  These glands produce small amounts of secretions from their cuboidal epithelial lining that are not clinically significant.
