What is an abnormal pap smear?

- HPV (Human Papillomavirus) – A common viral infection that may lead to cervical cell changes.
- Inflammation or Infection – Caused by yeast infections, bacterial vaginosis, or sexually transmitted infections (STIs).

What happens after an abnormal pap smear?
Your next steps depend on the type of abnormal cells detected. In many cases, mild abnormalities resolve on their own, but additional testing may be required to ensure there is no underlying concern.
Follow-up tests for an abnormal Pap smear include:
- Repeat Pap Smear – If minor changes are found, a repeat test in 6-12 months may be recommended.
- HPV Testing – Determines whether high-risk HPV strains are present.
- Colposcopy – A closer examination of the cervix using a special magnifying device.
- Cervical Biopsy – A small tissue sample is taken for further evaluation.
- Endocervical Curettage – A scraping of cervical cells to check for abnormalities higher in the cervical canal.
