A member asked:
Pap smear stated "the hpv dna reflex criteria were not met with this specimen result-therefore, no hpv testing was performed". what does this mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Simple: They may have done the traditional pap smear, but were unable to perform the additional HPV testing due to problems with the specimen.
