A member asked:
Had an abnormal pap smear my doctor wants to do a biopsy on my cell in my cervix what does that mean?

Cervical biopsy: The cervix is at the base of the uterus. The doctor would remove a small piece of tissue so that it can be examined.

Biopsy: Just take a small sampling of the cervical cells. This is routine to see if there are precancerous or cancerous cells. It should be done.
