: The description of the results of your cytology (pap smear) is a reference that confirms that adequate tissue has been retrieved, and the cells are benign. The stated results are consistent with "normal".

None of what you described is a cause for concern. Do follow your doctor's advice about repeat PAP tests. Wish you good health!
