I was wondering about alot of things but
this is all I could think of .. I mean
the doctor told me that it might not be a
hpv but have to do a coloscopy thingy to
make sure but i've always have a normal
result and now this came up .. I don't
know if a surgery has to do with it or
previous infection that could cause it
like bacterial vaginosis or something. I
don't know how to take my mind off this.
Should I speak with my doctor about this
or get a second opinion.. Or something?

Approximately 80% of sexual females will
get hpv at some point in their lives. Hpv
is a sexually transmitted disease that, if
left untreated, may lead to cervical
cancer.
You can get a second opinion if you wish.
I'm not entirely sure what the question
is.

I know no one has replied to this but
another question. I know you aren't a
doctor but I was thinking could a medience
for yeast infection cause an abnormal pap
smear? Because I had the med inside of
me when she did the pap smear and I forgot
that I put it in earlier. I didn't think
I would need a pap smear that day but she
said I needed one for inferility clinic
and the pap smear came back abnormal and I
was thinking if this would be the cause of
it.

Maybe you should call the doctor to let
them know that you did have medicine in
there and maybe they can tell you if that
would have affected the test.. Maybe that
will help ease your mind. Good luck to
you!

Get the colposcopy. It will tell you
whether or not there are cervical
abnormalities. Then there won't be a
question of if or maybe it
being yeast infection medication or not.
A colposcopy is when the doctor puts a
type of solution on your cervix and any
abnormal cells will turn white. A biopsy
of the white cells will tell you what the
problem is.
This is not a major ordeal. Honest. It
is simple and straightforward. A lot of
people have hpv and abnormal cells on
their cervix every day. It is easily
treatable and you will be fine.
