Back to colposcopy...HPV positive

Hi everyone,

After not getting my smear results for 6weeks, I called the GP who said there would be a further 2 weeks delay for me to get my letter. However, she did chase my results for me and was able to tell me over the phone I was being invited to colposcopy due to having HPV positive.

But I’m a little confused… I thought I had to have 3 years of HPV positive result to be referred back to colposcopy. I thought my letter would invite me back in 24months according to the NHS site if I had HVP positive again :thinking:

Could It be because I have had Lletz already in the past?

I havent had a negative result yet since being 24 for HPV :woman_facepalming: meaning I’m now onto my 7th year. Just getting fed up of these positive results!
Anyone else had the same?

Thanks,

sorry to hear that, very frustrating how it lingers for some people. I must have had it at least 5 as well and can’t understand why i havn’t been able to clear it. Have you ever had abnormal cells or just positive result, if so that is reassuring.
