Pap Smear And Colposcopy Services

Dr Neha Pawar is the Best Pap Smear and Colposcopy Specialist in Andheri West, Andheri and Mumbai. A pap test, also called a pap smear, involves gathering a sample of cells from your cervix and testing them for early changes that can lead to cervical cancer. If your pap test showed some abnormal cells and you tested positive for HPV, a colposcopy can help confirm and diagnose potential problems. Does colposcopy mean cancer? About 6 out of 10 women who have a colposcopy have abnormal cells in their cervix. This doesn't mean they are cancerous cells, but they can sometimes develop into cancer if left untreated. Very rarely, some women are found to have cervical cancer during a colposcopy.
