\u00a0<\/span>Your OBGYN will use an imaging device, called a colposcope, to look for irregular cervical tissue. A cervix with potentially cancerous tissue may have white patches, warts, polyps or swelling. In these instances, a sample will be taken and tested. <\/span>A healthy cervix will appear pink and smooth. If everything looks normal, additional tests may be needed to determine the cause of the irregular pap results.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n

\n- Abstain from sex 24 to 48 hours before the procedure.<\/li>\n
- Do not insert any products, such as tampons, into your vagina.<\/li>\n
- Ensure the procedure date does not fall during your period.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/i><\/i><\/span>Will it Hurt?<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>\nSome discomfort may be felt when a mild solution is used to clean and dry the cervix, but the Colposcopy should not hurt since the colposcope does not touch you. If a sample is needed, you may feel a slight pinching feeling as tissue is collected.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/i><\/i><\/span>After the Procedure<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div>\nFor those who did not have a sample taken:<\/p>\n
\n- No restrictions will be placed on your activity.<\/li>\n
- Light bleeding or spotting may occur for a day or two.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
For those who did have a sample taken:<\/p>\n
\n- Avoid intercourse or using tampons for at least a week.<\/li>\n
- Vaginal pain or discomfort may last a few days.<\/li>\n
- Light bleeding may be present for a few days.<\/li>\n
- You may notice dark vaginal discharge immediately following the Colposcopy.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
