A member asked:

Pap, results interpretation reads low grade squamous intraepithelial lesion. what does this mean?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Mildly abnormal cell: The pap test is just a screening test, so your doctor will have you come in for another test to get a diagnosis. That test is called a colposcopy. Here is more info: http://www.Acog.Org/~/media/for%20patients/faq135.Pdf?Dmc=1&ts=20130822t1553207662.
