- Cervical cancer can be detected at an early stage,
- HPV-related cellular changes can be identified,
- Necessary follow-up and treatment processes can begin early.
- Having regular Pap smear tests is critically important for protecting women's health.
Colposcopy and HPV Treatment
Early Diagnosis and Effective Solutions
Early diagnosis regarding HPV and cervical health is crucial to prevent potential future health issues. Colposcopy and HPV treatment are among the most effective methods used to detect cellular changes in the cervix and to apply the necessary treatments
Pap Smear Test
The Pap smear test is a simple and quick screening procedure used to detect abnormal cell changes in the cervix. Thanks to this test:
Cervical Cellular Changes
Abnormal changes can occur in cervical cells due to HPV infection. These changes:
- Can be mild (LSIL) or severe (HSIL),
- May resolve on their own or require treatment,
- Can be thoroughly examined and accurately diagnosed through colposcopy.
- Early diagnosis is crucial to prevent the potential development of cancer.
HPV Virus and Testing
HPV is one of the most common sexually transmitted viruses. Through HPV testing:
- The presence of HPV in the cervix can be detected,
- It can be determined whether carcinogenic types are present,
- The treatment process can be managed more effectively.
- HPV testing is especially recommended regularly for women over the age of 30.
HPV Virus Infection
The HPV virus can remain asymptomatic in the body depending on the immune system or cause genital warts and cellular changes. HPV infection:
- Is cleared by the immune system most of the time,
- Some types are high-risk and can lead to cancer,
- Can be largely prevented with vaccination.
- The most effective way to protect against HPV is to get vaccinated and maintain regular screening tests.
Genital Warts
Some types of HPV can cause warts to form in the genital area. Genital warts:
- Can cause aesthetic and hygienic concerns,
- Can be treated with laser, cryotherapy, or medication,
- Can be controlled by strengthening the immune system.
- Genital wart treatment is personalized according to the patient’s condition.
Colposcopy and Cervical Biopsy
Colposcopy is a specialized method that allows detailed examination of the cervix by magnifying it. If abnormal cellular changes are detected in the Pap smear test, colposcopy is recommended. This procedure:
- Allows detailed examination of cellular changes in the cervix,
- Enables biopsy sampling from suspicious areas,
- Is one of the most reliable methods for early diagnosis.
- Colposcopy is a painless and quick procedure that plays a major role in making an accurate diagnosis.
LEEP Procedure
The LEEP (Loop Electrosurgical Excision Procedure) is an electrocautery method used to remove abnormal cells from the cervix. This procedure:
- Completely removes cellular changes that may develop into cancer,
- Is performed quickly and has a fast recovery process,
- Does not prevent future fertility.
LEEP procedure is recommended for women diagnosed with advanced cellular changes in the cervix.
