I had my smear test on the 25th may, i have just recieved my results which says as follows; your results is hpv (human papillomavirus) negative This means your risk of cervical cancer is very low and there is no need to check for abnormal cervical cells even if you had them in the past...
Im very confused as ithought they check for abnormal cells then find out what is causing them? Should i still be concerned or does this mean i dont have cervical cancer?
I'm not the best person to answer your questions. Bur I would emphasise that the best way to prevent cervical cancer is to ALWAYS keep up to date with your smear tests - no excuses which was my BIG mistake.
Take care
