OB/GYN specialists are onsite for women with abnormal Pap test results

Comprehensive Care for Abnormal Pap Test Results

Finding out you have an abnormal pap test result can be scary.

What other tests will I have to go through? Will I need treatment?

As if these worries weren’t enough, women with abnormal Pap tests are usually sent to a specialist across town for inconvenient and time-consuming appointments.

OB/GYN specialists are available in Denver Harbor

Doctors from Houston Methodist’s OB/GYN department staff a weekly clinic at Denver Harbor Family Health Center, providing specialized care for women with abnormal Pap results. Additionally, the Family Medicine/OB doctors for women’s health are available for scheduling.

If the test shows that your cervical cells don’t look normal, your doctor will tell you that you have an “abnormal pap smear.” This might turn out to be nothing, but it also might be a sign of infection or cervical cancer. You will probably need to have more tests to find out.

Each woman’s situation is different, so the next steps will depend on the test results, her health, and other factors. It’s important to talk to a doctor about the options and what to do next.

What is a Pap test or Pap smear?

A Pap test can also be referred to as a Pap smear. It is a routine test that doctors use to make sure the cells on your cervix look normal. It only takes a few minutes and can be done right in a doctor’s office.

Is it time to schedule your routine Pap test?

A Pap test only takes a few minutes and is well worth the time.

Women with a low risk of cervical cancer should get routine Pap tests on the schedule listed below. Depending on your medical or family history, your doctor might ask you to take more frequent tests.

Pap test schedule
  • Ages 21-29: Every 3 years
  • Ages 30-65: Every 3-5 years, depending on other tests and factors

If you are due for a Pap test or need to talk with a doctor about your risk level, call Vecino to schedule an appointment. New patients are welcome.

Counting on the support of relatives, family, and community helpers can make difficult times more manageable.
