Hi, 

I had 2 HPV positive results but this year had my 3rd HPV positive and now invited to colposcopy. 

Hope that helps

Hello. 
 

I have just had the same 3 hpv positive smears and no abnormal cells. I have a colposcopy tomorrow. 
 

how did yours go? 

Ok but I didn't think a smear test could tell you if you had cin 1 I thought you had to have a biopsy.

But if the smear test has not identified abnormal cells, you don’t have CIN1, or indeed any type of CIN. You said your test didn’t identify any abnormal cells?

No it said it didnt but I'm sure my first test didnt either but when I had my biopsy done it came back. 

The smear test checks for types of HPV that can cause cell changes. If you have any of these types of HPV, the cells from the smear test are looked at to see if there are any changes to them. If there are not, that’s confirmation that you don’t have CIN. 

Ok thank you for helping me understand I think possible this was my 3rd smear. All of had hpv but I think the last one I must of also had abnormal cells as I went in for a colopsy.  

No problem. Abnormal cells would mean having a colposcopy for a closer look/testing, so your results are definitely better this time, since you don’t need the colposcopy. 

Hi there I have just had my second positive hob no abnormal cells but I have been experiencing abnormal bleeding in between periods and drs have brushed me aside not wanting to do anything to find the cause , is this normal for them to do this , could this be something I should worry about?

Hello, thank you for sharing your story, I'm so sorry to hear this and hope you have been able to sort things.

I hope you don't mind me asking but did you have the hpv vaccine?

thanks x

Can I ask how u got on please ? I have the same as u watery discharge etc never thought anything of it . Hope ur okthank u xx

Hi, at what point were you taken in for a biopsy? Was it after your first positive HPV result? Ive just recently been tested positive for HPV but no abnormal cells. However, Ive had some mucus like vaginal discharge a few weeks ago but it was when I was expecting to get my period and only happened once- Im really worried if that’s a sign of something more concerning and whether I should do anything about it
