Frequently Asked Questions
Is colposcopy painful?
Most women feel only mild discomfort similar to a Pap smear, though a pinching sensation can occur if a biopsy is taken during the same visit.
Does an abnormal colposcopy mean I have cancer?
No, most abnormal findings are precancerous changes or HPV-related changes that are far from cancer, though your doctor will explain the specific findings and any next steps needed.
How long do results take?
Biopsy results, if taken, typically take about a week to come back from the lab.
Will I need treatment after colposcopy?
This depends on the biopsy results; some findings need no treatment beyond monitoring, while higher-grade changes may need a procedure like LEEP or conization.
How often will I need repeat colposcopy or screening?
This depends on your specific findings; your gynecologist will recommend a personalized follow-up schedule based on the results.
