Hi,

I am 27, and have previously had two abnormal smears in the past two years, both HPV present, low grade dyskaryosis. 

Following on from both smears I had a colposcopy, with the first also taking a biopsy which came back fine, the second colposcopy the nurse didn’t seem concerned enough to take a biopsy, this was around June 2018. 

I was then told I would just be reviewed annually with my smear tests, I’m guessing because HPV is still present? 

Since then I fell pregnant and had my baby boy in July 2019, meaning I have to wait until 3 months after giving birth until I can go for my overdue smear test. 

I now have this booked in for two weeks time, but my mind is in overdrive I have automatically diagnosed myself with cancer, it’s all I can think about I’m just so anxious and scared of the result, I am concerned what if my cells have changed since being pregnant?

Would anything sinister be picked up on my pregnancy scans and blood tests? 

having a new baby and this hanging over me has been awful, I just want to fast forward two weeks have the smear test and find out the results. 

Any help/advice is much appreciated,

Thank you,

Bryony
