A member asked:

Hi, can you please explain if a coploscopy finding is immature squamous metaplasia with reactive changes, is this is cance; do i need a cone biopsy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Seems like..: The findings are positive. Seems like you need a biopsy, and there is no reason to panic. This is not a procedure that is major, and you can know what is really happening and treat it accordingly
