I suggest getting a second opinion. You didn't say what stage you were at. I had cervical cancer 2 years ago grant it I wasn't preg. at the time but they were able to do a cone biopsy and remove all of it mine was pretty severe they took out 30%of my cervix. Good luck I hope all works out.

I just went through a year and a half of HPV and first off...your are fine. And some of these answers are simply NOT CORRECT.  \n\nBH and cptkmwallman - If the test came back "high risk" then YES, it IS HPV..."High risk" is a form of HPV...its the kind that does not cause genital warts, but has a higher risk of causing cancer, it has nothing to do with how much sex you have had.\n\n MISS MARY - HPV is not caused by "genital warts" genital warts are a form of "low risk HPV".  \n\nHigh Risk HPV - the most common form of HPV.  DOES NOT cause genital warts.  It means that your pap detected abnormal cells in your vagina (cervix).  This is not the end of the world...something like 80% of women have this type of HPV.  It will go away on its own, but if you dont take frequent pap tests (every 6 months) it could develop into cancer.  Sometimes with high risk HPV, the abnormal cells are clustered together and a doctor can actually remove them using a number of procedures.  I only had a few and after 3 paps, my test came back normal.\n\nLow-risk HPV - This is the type of HPV that CAUSES genital warts.  This is less common and again, the doctors have a number of ways to remove warts and again, it will go away on its own.\n\nOnce you have had HPV, you will always have it in your system, but most likely you will not experience another problem.  \n\nDont worry or feel bad like you have a horrible STD...remember, almost everywoman will experience some form of HPV in her life...it is just that common.  Just concern yourself with preventing cervical cancer by taking frequent paps and you should recieve a normal one within 2 years most likely.\n\nI hope this answers your question...I sure did my studying and asking after my first abnormal pap.\n\nAND GOOD LORD PEOPLE>>>HIGH RISK DOES NOT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH HOW MANY SEXUAL PARTNERS YOU HAVE HAD< YOU COULD HAVE HAD 1 PARTNER AND STILL HAVE HIGH RISK HPV.

Please talk to your doctor.\nIf you are really worried, then speaking with a medical professional is the way to go.\nUnless someone is a doctor and knows your medical history, then it's almost impossible to say if you had a miscarriage or not.

As long as you are not having sexual intercourse or exchanging genital fluids your friends and family should be safe.  Be sure to get regular pelvic exams to screen for cervical cancer...\n\nYou can also refer to this link if you still need answers: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Ai06qacGW.36QISuoxiREeTsy6IX?qid=20061118122720AAAdKP7

Right i am no expert but here we go.\nI went for a smear and it came back as borderline, so it is then safe for them to leave it 6 months as some womens cells can return to normall in this time.\nWhen i went back for my second smear it came back severe which then means it is not going to go on its own, so you are referred to the hospital for a biopsy, to remove the cells they know can lead to cancer in  " YEARS" to come.\nSo please do not worry, you will be fine.

I had a pap to come back with ASCUS (atypical squamous of undetermined significance). I was HPV negative. What was you, positive or negative? That makes a big difference. They repeated my pap at 6 months, it was normal and then I was put back at yearly. They have been negative since. My doctor said I probably had a little inflammation from my birth control or a yeast infection. Best of luck. What have your previous biopsies showed?

Paps can come back abnormal and it's nothing or it can be cancerous cells.\n\nYour OBGYN is probably going to want to do whats called a coloscopy. They take a tiny bit of the tissue on your cervix and send it off to the lab. I have had this done twice. The first time it turned out to be cancerous cells and I had developed cervical cancer from HPV. The second time, about a year later, I had this done and it turned out to be nothing. My doctor said that having HPV can do that. It can make your paps come back abnormal, when really there is nothing wrong. I didn't even know I had HPV until my pap came back abnormal the first time. \n\nIf it does become cervical cancer then they have to do a "Leep" procedure. This is where they take a small layer of your cervix off to remove the abnormal tissue. \n\nIt's not 100% guarantee it will turn into cancer, but it might. Best thing to do is get a pap at least once a year. Now that you have had an abnormal one, your doctor is probably going to want you to come back every 3-4 months for a year, just so they can keep an eye on it. I have been going to my OBGYN for a re-pap every 4 months for the last 2 years!\n\nI hope this answered your question! Good luck to you!

i know exactly how you feel girl..the guy that i lost my virginity to actually maybe the guy that gave me hpv it looks as if after i had sex with him that he had clyamidha..and tried to say that i was the one that gave it to him ..which i know is impossible being as he is the first guy i was ever with..i then went and had myself checked for all stds and at that time i had contracted nothing...now i am 31yrs old and always and i do mean always practice safe sex i was recently diagnosed with hpv a year ago due to a abnormal pap smear i evidently do not have the strain that produces genital warts..which im grateful for but it still is such a slap in the face to know that youve always practiced safe sex and that now i have hpv...keep your chin up and i hope that your outbreak clears up soon 8)

I am reciting some of my experiences here – they are not meant to be boastful, rather I would like to inspire as many people who are suffering from cancer as possible – I would like to tell them – you can live normally! My best wishes to all, their families and friends! This is a long message so please do bear wtih me!\n\nThe stage grouping for my tumor was IVA (T3N0M0)  \n\nI ran a manufacturing plant in Mumbai (Bombay) and then moved to another city. I am a father of three beautiful kids- a son (age 20) who’s doing Engineering - Computer Science, a daughter (age17) who’s doing a pre-university science course and a school going younger son (age 10), and am very much in love with my wife of 25 years. We'll be celeberating our Wedding Siver Jubilee soon!\n\nOn August 30, 2002, I was diagnosed with cholangiocarcinoma - lower end common bile duct - by an MRI scan, I was 43 years old then (I married young), a malignant tumor was present at the joint between the head of my pancreas and the bile duct. This was further complicated by a scratch in my pancreas caused during ERCP on September 2, 2002. Though I have a high threshold of pain, the ERCP injury was almost intolerable and I had to be kept under sedation until surgery which took place on September 7, 2002. –.   Whipple’s procedure. \n\n\nMy gall bladder, omentum, part of my stomach, part of my pancreas (about 1/3rd),duodenum and the bile duct were removed. The margins were all clear. Right from September 1, 2002, when I had my last meal for quite some time, I was not fed anything at all, not even water. I was fed intravenously (I digress). \n\nReconstruction was carried out. I was in the operation theater and under anesthesia for almost 11 and ½ hours. Everything was fine until September 15, 2002, when excessive fluids started leaking out of the two drain holes made on both side of my abdomen. On that day in the morning I was fed with a low fiber diet with a tube connected directly to my stomach. I was very sick. My bowels gave away suddenly, and I lost control over my bladder. I started shivering violently and then suddenly felt very hot, I started sweating profusely and breathing was difficult even with an oxygen mask which had not been removed after surgery. Though in distress, my mind was very clear and lucid. I could see the expressions on the hospital staff and the doctors’ faces and understood that any second could be my last. That did not worry me or scare me, what worried me was my family’s fate after me, though after all the pain death was not an option that I wanted to reject outright.   \n\nI realized how serious I was, when experts advised that I be shifted to another hospital with better facilities a few miles away, and the doctors attending upon me, including the surgeon who’d operated on me and the anesthetist personally lifted me up and put me on a gurney to wheel me to the ambulance, rather than wait for the ward boys to come in. I remember the doctors periodically checking upon me by asking how I felt during the ambulance ride. I knew they wanted to know the level of my consciousness. I remember feeling the ambulance speeding and constant sound of the siren - not klaxon.\n\nI was quickly taken for an MRI scan and later my gurney with me on it was kept outside the hospital room, in a very safe and sterile place until the fate of my scan and probably, the doctors wanted to see if I would survive before admitting me into the hospital, Probably, if I know the law correctly, if I’d died within 24 hours of admission to a hospital a Post Mortem procedure would be mandatory.  I understood all this while I was waiting to be admitted to the better hospital, as I said, my mind was clear and lucid all throughout, I was very much aware of my surroundings, the people, the sounds and noises.\n\nAt that time I remember feeling quite pleasant, not hot at all and there seemed to be cool breeze wafting around me cooling me up. \n\nI was finally taken

I have (or had..not sure if it actually ever goes away) HPV and gave vaginal birth to both of my children. I never got warts or anything from it though. Just some bad cells on my cervix. And the last stats I can remember hearing about HPV is that somewhere around 85% of women have it.

woah! woah! woah!  "simple hysterectomy"?  Who's your doctor?  Frankenstein?  Have you had a cervical freeze or LEEP procedure yet?  I'm just recovering from cervical cancer myself.  It took one year and three procedures but I just had a normal pap smear.  Please email me and give me more details...I really think I can help you.  My email is murph_ltt@yahoo.com

It all depend, how long is been since you had the abortion? You can also see if there's any discharge and the color and odor of it. But certainly you must see a doctor. Infections in that area can develop in cancer if not treated and if those become recurrent.\n\nThis is for the lady who posted after me:\nRead more girl, after college there's plenty of continue education, RECURRENT infections can cause cancer not only in the cervix but in any other place. This is because of the memory of the cell. If the cell starts developing into more cells but it nucleous program has changed because a gene or a RECURRENT infection it may cause cancer.

Hi!\n\nIt's relatively uncommon to have breast cancer spread to the cervix, which is probably why you aren't finding much info.\nI would recommend a breast-cancer-support website, that includes forums where you can ask other members about their experiences.  Women survivors have a very tight knit communication with each other, and someone is bound to know someone else with info.\n\nwww.youngsurvival.org has a bulletin board.  That might be a good place to start.\n\nhttp://www.youngsurvival.org/young-women-and-bc/bbs/\n\nI googled "metastatic breast cancer" and "cervix" and got a few results... most were academic papers, but they do have a few case studies you can read.\n\nHave a look-see, or google those terms (including the quotations).
