Results of a vulva biopsy . Told yesterday I have precancerous cells but not what grade they are . What usually happens next ? I am waiting for the letter with perhaps more information .
I am sorry to hear you have recently has some tests done and have found out you have precancerous cells in your vulvar.
Hopefully someone involved in your care and management will be in touch with you soon to explain more about your situation and what needs to happen next.
As you may be aware the condition when pre cancerous ( and abnormal cells) are detected in the vulvar area is known asVIN ( Vulval intraepithelial neoplasia)which we have more information about on the website. As you will see there are varying degrees of VIN in terms of the types and severity and whether treatment is needed or not.
As I say the team involved will be able to talk you through what this information means for you and what may or may not need to happen next.
I hope you get more clarity soon but do get back in touch if you have more questions or wish to talk things through. The nurses are here weekdays 9-5 on 0808 800 4040.
