 Who needs a Colposcopy?




A Paps smear detects abnormal cells in the cervix.
A Colposcope shows a magnified view of the cervix from where these abnormal cells have been picked up.
You may be advised a colposcopy if
  • some of the cells in your Paps smear are abnormal (but not necessarily cancerous)
  • you are infected with human papillomavirus (HPV), which is the main cause of the abnormal cell changes and might lead to cancer
  • you've had several screening tests, but it wasn't possible to give you a result
  • the nurse or doctor who carried out your screening test thought your cervix didn't look as healthy as it should

A colposcopy can also be used to investigate things such as unexplained vaginal bleeding (for example, after sex) or an infected cervix.
