Normal Cervical Biopsy Results
I had an annual Pap test a few weeks ago, and for the first time, the results were abnormal. I was informed that I tested positive for HPV. I went in for a Copolscopy and cervical biopsy last week, and the results of the biopsy are normal. My gynecologist told me I could return back for a Pap test in one year, as guidelines have recently changed (apparently instead of a repeat in 6 months following normal biopsy, a 1-year repeat is fine). She did mention that I could do a 6-month follow up if I want, but one year is okay too. Are there any benefits with doing a repeat pap in 6 months vs one year? Or would it really not make a difference? My Gyno seems to think a year is okay, but alternate opinions are appreciated.
