A member asked:
What are the chances pap smear would miss cervical cancer twice? abnormal spotting and bleeding in between periods. i have pcos and my dr said its the cause. can pcos cause this? 3 normal trans vag ultrasounds. my endometrial lining is very thin?

Pap smear almost never misses cervical cancer. The other conditions you mention could be responsible. You also need testing for STIs if not yet done, especially gonorrhea and chlamydia. Discuss with your doctor. Good luck.
