A member asked:
I had squamous metaplasia in may 2016, i didnt go for pap yet, do u think it would have pprogressed into cancer ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not likely at all: Squamous metaplasia is not a disease. It is usually a normal process. It is not considered a precursor to cervical dysplasia or to cancer. It does not "progress into cancer." Request a routine Pap test accompanied by an HPV screen to have peace of mind.
