A member asked:

What are the next steps after a colposcopy which resulted in a biopsy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Treat or monitor: After your biopsy results are in, your doctor will let you know if you need treatment to remove abnormal cells or if it is best to give your body time to take care of them. Either way, it is very important to follow up with regular pap smears according to the schedule your doc provides.
