What would Cause bleeding after Pap smear?

Bleeding after a pap smear test is normal because they are scraping skin off the sensitive cervix


Why would you be getting a bad discharge ever since you had a pap smear?

A yeast infection located higher in the vagina, closer to the cervix, where the pap smear was taken from. Consult your ob/gyn physician and test results from the pap smear.


Do you have to have a pap smear if you don't have a uterus?

If you had a hysterectomy due to cervical cancer or pap-related problems, you would still have pap smears of the vaginal cuff, even if you didn't have a cervix. If you had your uterus and cervix removed for other reasons, such as bleeding or fibroids, you can stop pap smears, but should continue annual GYN exams.


How often should a woman get a pap smear?

Women 21 to 65 with no history of abnormal pap smear get cervical cancer screening about every three to five years. Talk with your health care provider for advice specific to your situation and health history.


Can a Doctor see vaginal Dysplasia by doing a pap smear?

Not really, as he has to send the smear out to a pathologist who will take a look at the smear under a microscope. The pathologist will send a report back to the doctor who took the smear. The first doctor will then let you know what the results are.


Do you nead to have a smear test after a recently done MRI test for a slipped disc. wouldn't anything abnormal shown up in that?

Yes, you still need to have a pap smear. An MRI done to check for a slipped disc is not testing for the same things that a pap smear tests for, nor is it looking at the same areas of the body.A pap smear is designed to find changes in the cells of your cervix. These cells are very small, and such changes would not show up on an MRI.


If you are pregnant how long would it take to see the baby in an ultrasound or even pap smear?

You can usually see the sac on ultrasound at five weeks. It may be six weeks until you can see an embryo. A pap smear can't tell if you're pregnant; it's a screening test for cervical cancer and precancerous changes on the cervix.


Is it possible for the cervix to be open during early pregnancy when you are only 5 weeks and 6 days If yes what causes this and is it a sign of an impending miscarriage?

it is called an incompetent cervix, it can be caused by damaged during a previous birth or a previous surgury on the cervix. and from the cervix bein open it can cause a miscarriage, so that wouldn't happen you would need a cerclage which is a procedure in which the doctor will sew the cervix closed with sutures to reinforce the cervix and prevent it from dilating to early... hopefully this would help you because it sure helped me


What would happen if you popped the pimple on your penis?

if you were to have a pimple on your penis and then popped it, it would be painful and it is possible that it could get infected.


Can you get pregnant if you have an abnormal pap?

You can get pregnant with an "abnormal" pap.It would possibly be in your best interrest to have a follow up test first and possibly removal of the few cells that causes the test to be "abnormal".The Pap smear test detects changes in the cervix, which may become cancer. However, having an abnormal Pap smear test result does not necessarily mean you have or will get cervical cancer. This is especially true for women who follow their doctor's recommendations for when to have the Pap smear test.A thin layer of tissue, composed of cells, covers the cervix. As cervical cells develop, the cells on the bottom layer move to the surface of the cervix. Sometimes, during cellular development, cervical cells may become damaged or abnormal. When this occurs, these cells develop in an abnormal way and sometimes require removal to prevent cervical cancer from developing.


If you had a shortened cervix in last pregnancy what is the likely hood it will happen again?

Yes, it is likely that it will happen again, but not always. sometimes when it is short it has just never been stretched out, so after the first pregnancy, it might be ok, and some people just have a short cervix, so its really an individual case. I would tell your ob about it and they will check often to make sure your cervix is fine.


Do you still have to have smears after total abdominal hysterectomy with right Salpingo-oophorectomy?

If you are talking about a Pap Smear, the answer is yes. Pap smear is a sample of your cervical tissue which is the lower part of your uterus. Bilateral salpingo-opphorectomy is only removing the fallopian tube and ovaries.
