Vulvar cysts ABOVE bartholin gland

Question

Asked for Female, 28 Years

I have a history of cysts on my ovaries and in my breasts. About 3 years ago I found 2 lima bean sized cysts in upper vulvar/ labia majora region on either side of clitoris. They're soft, movable, and palpable but not visible. Usually there is no pain unless I go biking they get sore. I can't find much info on this and based on my research there are no glands in this area either. They are much higher than the area a bartholin cyst would be. What specialist should I see for evaluation/removal?
