Hello. I am writing here to ask some advice please as very anxious. A year ago I had false negative smear test but because I had bleeding between periods I was still refered for Colposcopy where Biopsy showed positive HPV and I was discharged from the clinic to my GP for 3 year follow up. This year I had bleeding again , had Colposcopy and Biopsy and now I have CIN 1. I am really worried now that my CIN 1 will progress to CIN 2/3, I still have HPV virus and it does not go away, probably, because I am 42 years old. My next Colposcopy is in 3 months, I feel anxious that it will progress to cancer while I wait. I am thinking maybe I should ask Gynaecologyst if I can have Hysterectomy to remove everything as I also have complex cyst in my Ovary which needs to be removed. I am worried as I have a small child I need to survive.
