Colposcopy today - biopsy

Hi all,

 

I had a letter 3 weeks ago to say I had low grade and HPV, I tired to carry on as normal until today when I had my colposcopy, she said she needed to take a biopsy but she done it with a local so I was numb, and a burning technique, all she said was that I needed to wait for my results before we find out what happens next. I'm only 24 please can someone give me some advice or experience or outcomes please I'm going out of my mind with worry. X

  • Hello Chlo934

    I hope that you're feeling ok after your procedure on Wednesday. It's not uncommon for a biopsy to be taken during a colposcopy. You can read more on our website here

    If you'd like to speak to one of our team of nurses about your concerns then you can call them on 0808 800 4040, Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm. 

    Best wishes,
