Ascus pap with negative hpv 4 months after a csection. what could cause that? does it often develop into something more? if it keeps returning is it a good idea to have a hysterectomy? 31 year old done having kids. had some fibroids noted on csection
A doctor has provided 1 answer
ASCUS pap smear: ASCUS means Atypical Squamous Cells of Undetermined Significance. The causes are unknown. Some but not all cases may be caused by HPV. It is harmless and usually clears up over time. It does not lead to cancer or any other imortant health conditions. If you remain uncertain or concerned, discuss with the doctor who did your pap smear. In the meantime, don't worry.
