A member asked:
I had papsmear and the result shows : benign smear with severe inflammation and reparative changes?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
As the report states: the result is benign...no cervical cancer or pre-cancer. The follow-up needed for this result is slightly controversial but most doctors/providers would look for any sign of infection (inflammation often present in infection; reparative change means it is repairing itself) and treat it. Then the Pap AND HPV test would be repeated in 4-6 months. If inflammation persists, consider colposcopy.
