Patient's question:
Hello, I had a thorough examination for cervical inflammation at the local hospital. How should this be resolved?Doctor's answer:
The patient underwent cervical cancer screening, including TCT and HPV tests. The TCT results showed "atypical squamous cells of undetermined significance" (ASCUS), while the HPV test was negative for viral infection. Since your test results indicate no HPV viral infection, only ASCUS with fibrosis, it is recommended that you undergo another TCT test in one year. This is because ASCUS with an unclear clinical diagnosis may be caused by inflammation. If the problem persists after one year of retesting, a cervical biopsy or colposcopy may be considered. In addition to promptly treating cervical inflammation, patients should maintain a positive attitude to face the disease. Only in this way can patients receive timely and appropriate treatment.
