I am 65 and had a pap test done.the results showed that i do not have cancer but i am in risk.does this mean someday i will get it?any way to prevent?

HPV?: Most likely this means the pap showed human papillomavirus (HPV), or perhaps cervical dysplasia, i.e. pre-cancer. If it's HPV, ask your doctor if it's a high risk type, i.e. assoicated with cancer. But even then, the large majority of such women do not develop cancer later; usually the HPV or dysplaisa just goes away. Follow your doc's advice about follow-up testing, which will prevent cancer.

Follow docs plan: The pap test has been around since the 1940's & has value in finding changes long before cervical cancer develops.The cells removed from the scrape are analyzed as normal, or some variation between normal all the way to cancer. If your study showed you at risk, that means no cancer but it might do that in the future. Since that change takes months to years you just need be re-tested on schedule
