CIN3 and hpv

A year and a half ago I had a smear test and was told i have HPV but it was laying dormant so to book in a years time and it should be gone.

 unfortunately I went back a year later and was told it was there and postive with some abnormal cells. 
i got refered to hospital and was told they was CIN3 high grade/server, they was really good at the hospital and removed them there and then and told to rebook in 6 months for another smear.

i am due the smear next month and can not stop worrying as my periods are everywhere and really heavy, Iv had spotting and pains I wouldn't normally get.

Could the CIN3 come back that fast and could it turn to cancer that fast?

  • Hi Maria and welcome to the forum.

    I noticed you had some questions about CIN3 and cancer so I just wanted to point you in the direction of our cancer nurses as they're very knowledgeable in this area and will be able to explain in more detail how this all works. If you'd like to speak to them, they're available on 0808 800 4040, Monday - Friday between 9a.m - 5p.m.

    I know it's hard not to worry, as do our members, many of which have been in a similar situation so you're not alone and hopefully you will receive some support and advice from them soon.

    I really hope your cervical screening goes well next month and you receive good news when the time comes. 

    All the best,
