A member asked:

Abnormal papsmear..lsil with hpv positive ..is this cancer or precancer?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Terminology: Low grade intraepithelial lesions is just that, it means there are changes in the tissue that are there but do not reach a higher risk category. Studies site risk of pre-cancer at around 6% and cancer at 1%. The docs have guidelines that say when/how aggressive they should be in managing your follow-up and treatment. This is something you should discuss with the treating doc.
