Pap Smear & Abnormal Pap Smear Care in the Twin Cities

Cervical Health Screening – Protect Your Health with Regular Pap Smears

A Pap smear is a crucial screening test that helps detect cervical cancer and other abnormalities in the cervix. At Twin Cities Birth Center + Women’s Health Clinic (TCBC), we provide compassionate, comprehensive Pap smear testing and follow-up care for abnormal Pap smears.

What is a Pap Smear?

A Pap smear is a simple, quick procedure that collects cells from the cervix to check for:

• Cervical cancer or precancerous changes

• HPV (Human Papillomavirus) infection

• Other cervical abnormalities

Routine Pap smears are recommended for women starting at age 21 and continue every 3-5 years, depending on age and risk factors.

What Does an Abnormal Pap Smear Mean?

An abnormal Pap smear does not always indicate cancer, but it does require further investigation. Abnormal results may indicate:

• HPV infection

• Cervical dysplasia (precancerous changes)

• Inflammation or infection

At TCBC, we provide follow-up care for abnormal Pap smears, including:

• Colposcopy: A closer examination of the cervix

• Biopsy: Taking a tissue sample for further analysis

• HPV Testing: Identifying high-risk HPV strains

• Treatment Plans: Managing precancerous or cancerous changes

• Compassionate Care: Gentle, patient-centered approach to testing

• Expert Follow-Up: Thorough evaluation of abnormal results
