Frequently Asked Questions
What is a colposcopy and why is it done?
A colposcopy is a diagnostic procedure that uses a magnifying instrument to examine the cervix, vagina, and vulva closely to detect abnormal cells, precancerous changes, and early signs of cervical cancer.
When might I be advised to have a colposcopy?
You may be recommended a colposcopy if you have an abnormal Pap test, a positive high-risk HPV result, or other symptoms like unusual bleeding or changes seen in a pelvic exam.
What happens during the colposcopy procedure?
During the exam, a speculum is placed to view the cervix while a colposcope magnifies the area. Saline or vinegar solutions may be applied to highlight abnormal tissue, and a biopsy may be taken if needed.
Does a colposcopy hurt?
Most women feel mild pressure or slight discomfort during the procedure. If a biopsy is taken, a brief pinch or cramp may be felt, but pain is usually minimal and temporary.
How soon will I get the results and what do they mean?
Biopsy results typically take a few days to a week. Normal results mean no abnormal cells were found. If abnormal or precancerous cells are detected, your doctor will discuss the next treatment or follow-up steps.
How should I prepare for my colposcopy appointment?
Your doctor may advise avoiding sexual intercourse, tampons, or vaginal medicines for a day or two before the test. Also schedule it when you’re not on your period for the clearest exam.
