A member asked:
I tested negative for the all high risk hpv strains. however there were insufficient cells in my pap to receive an adequate cytology result. considering >90% of cervical cancers are caused by hpv, is a repap really necessary at age 24? or can i wait?

You can wait but do keep your next appointment for PAP as advised by your doctor. If you are not vaccinated for HPV, get vaccinated. Wish you good health!
