Management of cervical abnormalities

Management of abnormal cervical screening results involves several steps to identify and address potential issues like precancerous changes or infections detected during a Pap smear or HPV test. If abnormalities are found, further evaluation is necessary, often starting with a colposcopy to closely examine the cervix. If suspicious tissue is identified, a biopsy may be taken for analysis. Treatment options may include cryotherapy, LEEP, or laser therapy to remove abnormal tissue. In more severe or persistent cases, a cone biopsy or hysterectomy may be recommended.

Dr Samina Ahmed provides comprehensive care for abnormal cervical screening results, emphasizing regular monitoring and follow-up screenings to prevent precancerous changes from progressing. For women with high-risk HPV strains, consistent screenings are essential for early detection, as untreated HPV infections can lead to cervical cancer.
