Patient's question:
Hello, could you please tell me if the cervical smear report indicates normal biochemical cells and normal endocervical cells?Could you explain why there is a fungal infection detected in the cervical smear, but it wasn't found in the routine vaginal discharge test? Is this possible?
First follow-up question: Why wasn't it detected in my test?
Second follow-up question: Which report—routine vaginal discharge test or cervical smear test—is more reliable? I had two routine vaginal discharge tests, and neither showed a fungal infection; one was done alongside the cervical smear.
Third follow-up question: What are the possible reasons for this? What should I do?
Doctor's answer:
What are your current symptoms? This is very important for diagnosis.
