Can a pap smear done while having a period affect a pap smear result and give a false reading of abnormal cells?

There are many kinds of abnormal pap smears. The point of the pap smear is the detection of abnormal, precancerous cells on the cervix. Occasionally, other abnormalities are found. If you're worried about your pap smear result, ask your health care provider for more information about your specific case. Some abnormalities require only routine followup in three to five years; others require other types of testing done within months of the smear. A pap smear during your period may cause an unsatisfactory result if the blood obscures the view of the cervical cells, but won't cause an abnormal pap. Ask your health care provider for more information based on your results and health history.
