Abnormal pap

I'm so nervous. When I first found out I was pregnant my pap smear came back abnormal but they weren't concerned. They said they believed it to just be some bacteria. Now at my 6 week PP appointment I have a different doctor and it came back abnormal again and now I have to have a colposcopy. I'm super nervous. 😫😖

Anyone with experience of this?

I did when I was in my early 20’s and had some laser treatment. It was so bad that apparently if I hadn’t had it done it would have killed me in 4 years 😭 well done for keeping up your appointments. It’s an extremely curable thing to kill as long as you get it sorted when they tell you. I’m now in my 40’s and haven’t had any problem since. I always attend my appointments. Don’t be scared at all. Just make sure you keep going to your appointments xx

Ive had an abnormal pap right before TTC. I had to have a colposcopy & then a biopsy. Everything came back fine- no cancerous cells which is one of the worst outcome. My obgyn repeated the pap right when i got pregnant and it was normal. It turns out i had a small fibroid but it never posed a concern or problem- it didnt interfere with my TTC or my pregnancy. And it didnt grow. It was very scary & i thought the worst was going to happen but everything was ok.

Yeah I’ve had abnormal paps on and off for 15 years, I’ve had multiple colposcopies, they aren’t too bad just a pinch and a cramp. Never been anything to worry about, you’ll likely be just fine!

I have abnormal pap and they think it’s because I had miscarriage 2 weeks prior, will follow up in six months . Hormones play a part and I had a friend who had abnormal pap postpartum came back normal after colposcopy.

Me. Mine was abnormal when I got pregnant and they told me they think it’s probably the change in hormones and they were right. Had a redo 6 weeks PP and it was normal.
