Common Questions and Answers about Hysterectomy and cervical dysplasia

hysterectomy

Avatar f tn I worry about my health and all my sisters have had dysplasia, and none of them got it back.But none of them had the scarring i did,and they can have regular pap tests.What do you think i shoul do?
Avatar n tn I deeply regret my hysterectomy...so be 99% sure you really want this...and research, research and research some more...good luck!
Avatar n tn The longer a HR strain(s) of HPV is active the higher the possibility for dysplasia to develop. Being that you have had a hysterectomy (and no cervix left) you obviously won't develop cervical dysplasia but it is possible for HR-HPV to cause vaginal and/or vulva dysplasia. However, for most women, they can clear an active infection without ever developing any symptoms or ill effects.
Avatar n tn My recent papsmear result reveals low-grade intra-epithelial lesion (LSIL) encompassing HPV Changes/Mild Dysplasia/CIN 1..This made me depressed and hysterical knowing and believing that all those years my husband was loyal to me. I've never been into intimate relationships other than my husband.. Definitely he transmit that virus to me.
Avatar f tn m scheduled for a hysterectomy on sep 6th for severe cervical dysplasia and also very heavy cycles. Im scared of cancer since it says pelvis mass. My mother died of stomach cancer at the age of 40. Any info would be helpful. Here are the results from the ultrasound........ Impression Unchanged 1.7 cm left ovarian lesion which may represent a complex hemorrhagic cyst. Solid mass not excluded. Recommend continued followup. Pelvic MRI may be useful for further characterization.
20795800 tn?1509581846 I had signs of HPV the kind that leads to cervical cancer- i HAD A dysplasia on my cervix and a burning procedure where it was sent out to see if it was malignant in stage 2 at one gyno- but the new gyno didnt know until just now- what should I do? he seemed concern but at the same time I already have stage 3 breast cancer- i'm thinking a whole hysterectomy.
Avatar f tn re dealing with this. Since you had a hysterectomy (including removal of your cervix) for cervical dysplasia / pre-cancerous cells, it's surprising you've continued to have problems. Were the vaginal cuff surgeries for cancer or pre-cancer? I wonder if the most recent finding of LGSIL is accurate or if you need another pathologist's interpretation. Pathology second opinions are sometimes needed just like getting second opinions from other kinds of doctors.
Avatar n tn I have had a history of cervical dysplasia since I was 16. I'm now 28 and still abnormal (usually CIN1 however CIN2/3 several years ago) testing positive for high risk HPV. I've never had a normal pap. At this point I am seriously considering a hysterectomy. 12 years of biopsies every 6 months gets a little taxing emotionally and physically. Is a hysterectomy a fair option?
Avatar n tn Many of the members attend the conferences regularly and have run the spectrum of mild dysplasia to invasive cervical, vaginal, vulvar and anal cancer. There is a lot of eperience, support and up to date research. I highly recommend it. http://www.inspire.com/groups/national-cervical-cancer-coalition/ Best wishes to you!
Avatar n tn Hi, I'm having a hysterectomy due to cervical dysplasia and already having 3 LEEP procedures and no cervix left.. They want to remove my ovaries at the same time. Being 63 and post menopausal for a while I thought it would be fine but now a bit concerned after reading more on the internet regarding health after.
Avatar n tn Foci of high grade squamous intraepithelial lesion ( severe squamous dysplasia, CIN 3 ). One focus of HGSIL is present at an inked and cauterized endocervical margin and stains positively with P16 and shows a marked increase in proliferative activity on KI-67 stains. This represents a positive margin.
667937 tn?1227758698 t know what you results mean from your previous paps (the class 2, 3 and 4) I know cervical dysplasia is usually graded in CIN categories; CIN1 (mild), CIN2 (moderate) CIN3 (severe) or CIS which carcinoma in situ but not true cancer since it is not invasive. (sometimes CIN3 and CIS are considered to be the same) Pregnancy tends to create an environment for HPV and dysplasia to thrive because the immune system is down and can not fight off HPV as well.
Avatar n tn my friend had a hysterectomy years ago and she is having some back pain recently and now she's been bleeding after not having a period for years. could you help!!!!!!
Avatar n tn Unfortunately, even with a hysterectomy, HPV can still cause dysplasia and/or cancer of the vagina and vulva (as well as anal, penile and oral) even without new exposure to the virus. While these occurences aren't common, they aren't rare either. Which is why it is so important for you to continue with regular smears and HPV tests.
Avatar f tn Over time, the HPV virus can mutate the cells of our skin and cause a condition called dysplasia. Dysplasia is a pre-cancerous alteration to the cells of your cervix. Ultimately, now that you know you have mildly abnormal cells, you should consider getting a genotyping done of what kind of HPV has infected your genitals. HPV type 16 and 18 are known to cause 70% of cervical cancers in women..while other genotypes do not.
Avatar f tn About 15 years ago my PAP came back abnormal with cervical dysplasia and pre-cancerous cells detected. A LEEP and Colosocopy was done at that time and my PAP remained normal for 1 year. The following year, my PAP came back abnormal again with the pre-cancerous cells, at that time I had a total hysterectomy with removal of the cervix. Since that time all my PAP have been normal again.
Avatar f tn There are some treatment for precancerous cells (dysplasia- CINI-CINII-CINII) which i am going to explain. Treatment of cervical dysplasia depends on the severity, the presence of HPV, risk factors, and patient's preference. For ASCUS and mild dysplasia (low-grade SIL/CIN I), the physician may perform HPV typing. If no virus or a low-risk strain is present, Pap smears may be repeated at 4- to 6-month intervals because ASCUS and mild dysplasia often resolve without intervention.
Avatar f tn They hurt just to have my arm in a resting position. I did have a full hysterectomy due to cervical cancer in 2005. I dont have the money to pay to go to a Dr just for them to say its a hair bump. Suggestions on how to tell the difference?
Avatar n tn This is not to say that imbalances cannot occur in younger women and so in doing your research on this topic, you might want to Google some of the key words (hormones, Cervical Dysplasia, Ovarian issues, etc) and see what you come up with.
Avatar n tn I scanned your several questions on the Gyn and other forums concerning your cervical HPV and dysplasia. Essentially you are now asking for information on the risk of simultaneous or later anal dysplasia or cancer in women who have (or have had) cervical HPV/dysplasia. To my knowledge, there are no data on this; I have never seen any research reports that address it. But my bet is that the risk of later anal cancer in your situation is very low.
Avatar n tn Not having regular Pap tests increases the chance of unrecognized cervical cancer. Between 60% and 80% of women with newly diagnosed cervical cancer have not had a Pap test in at least five years. Tobacco use. Women who smoke are about twice as likely to develop cervical cancer as women who do not. The more a woman smokes - and the longer she has been smoking - the greater the risk. Eating habits.
Avatar f tn I would expect surgery to remove the cells and discussion about hysterectomy and possibly further treatment. (radiation, chemo and targeted therapy). It IS treatable. And this sounds to be in a manageable point right now! When do you follow up with your doctor? I'm sorry you are going through this!!
Avatar f tn I had colpo and Dr stars he saw nothing suspicious and that those cells shouldn't even be there since those are in the uterus and I had hysterectomy. Going to have repeated in 6 months. So I get to wait some more.
Avatar f tn with cervical dysplasia it is a symptom of HPV or HIV and if you have that, than i would worry. But a regular cervical dysplasia is nothing to worry about. If its mild then it usually goes away by itself, if its severe then they will remove it just in case so you dont have a risk of cancer in the future.
Avatar n tn this was posted by Mary53 back in august of 2006 might answer some of your questions I am guessing that moderate discariosis is the same as moderate cervical dysplasia. I did a quick google search and came up with that. I had severe cervical dysplasia in fall of 96 and was diagnosed with ovarian cancer (very very early...malignant cells in one cyst only) in the summer of 2000. I asked if there might be a connection between the two and was told "no.
Avatar n tn Forgot to mention no smoking is a biggy when it come to HR-HPV and cervical dysplasia. While 99.8% of all cervical cancers are caused by HPV, smoking can double the risk of cervical cancer when you have it so if you do smoke - you might want to strongly consider quitting.
Avatar f tn Do you actually have cervical dysplasia and been treated for it? HPV types 16 and 18 cause most cases of cervical cancer. Do you know what type you have? Just some things to consider... My doctor used cancer scare tactics and I wish I had not let fear overtake as it made for undergoing treatment that caused much more harm than good. Best of luck to you.
Avatar m tn Also in 2003 I had genital warts ( assuming due to her cheating, since I have only ever had sex with her) could her body of cleared up the HPV and then I gave it back to her? My warts cleared up in 2003 and then every now and then I get a wart or two that goes away after a little time.
