    Hpv and atypical cells
    My Dr just told me that they found atypical cells and I tested positive for high risk HPV and she's referring me to a gyno for further testing... I know I don't have genital warts or antying like that I have no symptoms at all When I was pregnant with my son my pap was normal (2 years ago) Do they test for that when you're pregnant? Does this mean I have cervical cancer?

    1) No, it's not typically tested for during pregnancy.

    2) Again, no, this is not a diagnosis of cervical cancer.

    Is it curable? Treatable? Spreadable?

    I thought the vaccination didn't help if you already have it
