yeast infection and abnormal pap smear

Can Pap smears detect yeast/bacteria infection or abnormal ph balance

Hello, I have had a yeast infection on and off for about three months. I went to my doctor three months ago and was prescribed medicine. One day after my appointment I noticed a few slightly raised bumps on the very inside of my vagina. After messing with them they became more raised, like skin tags. They have remained the same for 3 months (I haven't slept with anyone other than my boyfriend).

Also, other infections can cause and abnormal pap like irritation, yeast infection, bacterial infection (bv) and sometimes mishandling of the smear can cause it, also using yeast infection cream or having sex before the pap smear can also cause false results. A pap smear is a precaution to make sure u dont have cancer but it is not a diagnosis...

Shes nineteen and when she went to the doctor her pap smear came out abnormal. I have been reading on here and it says that this could happen if your young and become pregnant or if you smoke or if you have a yeast infection. Has anyone else had this happen to them? I was just wondering what the possibilities of this are.

My pap smear came back abnormal, they showed me a scale about cancer and said I'm the very bottom..that I have to have another pap smear in 12 months? They mentioned hpv but she said I might not have it all. I don't understand my baby will be here around June 12th, so my next pap smear is after I have the baby? They said I could delivery naturally also. I just don't understand.

Hello I am 25 years old and I recent had my first pap smear and was told I had BV, bacteria vaginosis. I was put on Metronidozole Vaginal gel, 0.75% for 5 days. My pap smear test results all came back negative, no STD no abnormal pap smear. But It's been a week since I finished the use of the metronidozole gel and I have notice an increase amount of discharge that is not normal for me.

I am 22 years old and received abnormal PAP smear results on the PAP I got last year. I then had a colposcopy (which came back normal) and a PAP smear six months later (which also came back normal). My question is, what can cause an abnormal PAP smear? Is HPV the only cause? My husband is the only sexual partner I've ever had and I'd like to know if any abnormal PAP smear ensures that I had an STD. Are there other causes? Thanks very much.

Hi everyone! I'm 17 and back in June i had my first yeast infection. After multiple treatments it just wouldnt go away so a month later I went back to the doctor, he performed a pap smear and I just got the results back and he said that I have a bacteria infection. I am now taking antibiotics for a week to help it. However, I dont know if I trust this result. I've been having abnormal vaginal bleeding on and off for the last month.

Recently I had an abnormal pap smear, the doctor said it showed a few abnormal cells. She said it didn't mean it was cancer and could just be a yeast infection or inflammation but they recommend looking closer with a scope at an OBGYN clinic. She also said I had some clear discharge (I commonly get this around my period) that could be a sign of a yeast infection. The pap was also done 4 days after my period and I recently (within a few weeks) had had a urinary tract infection.

Hi, Is there any abnormal discharge coming from either of you? Have you ruled out a yeast infection or uti? It is possible for men to get yeast infections too and you could pass it back and forth IF that's what it is, but I suggest both you and your fiance get checked by the doctor.

I have since been doing a lot of reading and im worried that other things can cause an abnormal pap smear suddenly such as inflamation due to another STD or vaginal infection. like herpes or yeast.

Would a pap smear come back abnormal if you have an active *low-risk* HPV infection or must they test for the actual virus via some other means besides a pap to identify? Would high-risk infection return abnormal pap results? Thank you for any information, this is a very confusing virus.

I think I might have BV or maybe a yeast infection...can this cause abnormal pap??? I am very scared and looking for any info. I can get!!! THank you!

(Biopsy results are usually about 3 days) and then you will know if the abnormal pap was due to the infection of if it is due to dysplasia. What were the results of the HPV test? (HPV is not tested through regular STD tests, it is only ran through pap smears and usually not until you are older as most younger women will test positive anyway.) If the result of the biopsy from your colposcopy confirms dysplasia then that would have been caused by HPV.

and by having a pap smear every year we can stay ahead of the game because a pap smear will pick up anything abnormal, even yeast.

my wife went to her urologist, she took high vaginal swap and did PAP smear, the result for vaginal swap is normal and for PAP smear was abnormal (mild inflammatory smear with ASCUS), the urologist told my wife that there is a severe inflammatory in her cervix. she gave my wife cream for yeast, and vaginal suppositories to treat the inflammatory, and she asks my wife to repeat the PAP smear after 3 months.

Yes I had this odor. I received a call today that my Pap smear was abnormal, abnormal cells were found on my cervix. A colposcopy is scheduled for November, I'm also being tested for HPV. Scared of the possibility if I do have it.

Since your Pap was LSIL you should have a repeat Pap in 6 to 12 months. An abnormal Pap can be caused by inflammation and minor infection. The fact that you stopped the pill should not cause the abnormal result unless you are menopausal and there are some changes at menopause that can cause the Pap to appear abnormal but it is really normal for that age group. In this case they often prescribe a vaginal estroegen cream.

Hi everyone! I'm really hoping to get some clear answers because I am very sad and scared. I'm 21 years old and in July I had a yeast infection, I used monistat 3 which seemed to work just fine..for about a month. Then I felt itchy again so I decided to go to my gyn who prescribes me a pill and 7 day cream treatment that usually works like magic for me and this time it didn't I felt fine only for a few day then again with the annoying symptoms.

According to American pregnancy association these include, • An infection or an inflammation • Herpes • Trichomoniasis • Recent sexual activity • HPV (Human Papilloma Virus) • Dysplasia (abnormal cells that can be pre-cancerous) If you had abnormal PAP smear then you needed further investigations like colposcopy and biopsy to confirm the diagnosis which you have got done and the result has come as benign.

i was having abnormal bleeding, and i had never had a pap smear nor abnormal bleeding. I went in to PP and had a pap. during that time i had a trip to mexico, so i received a call from pp saying my pap was abnormal and that meant i had HPV, and i need to get treated, i ask the person who called me a lot of questions and she did not know how to answer any of them.

Check out the yeast infection but there is no reason to believe they are related except that a yeast infection can cause a mildly abnormal Pap but it is related to the yeast infection and not HPV. Again most HPV infections clear on their own but it would seem that if you did have HPV that caused some abnormal cells that it was removed doing the LEEP procedure.

I researched the syptoms but nothing i found matches the infection to be exact. i had a yeast infection before and this does not feel like one. i am scared that this may be STD related beacause of other comlications i'va had in the past few months (see posts). Someone please help me!

I had a Pap come back abnormal last year and freaked out thinking my boyfriend had given me genital warts and I would have to get my cervix removed and would never have kids, etc. It turns out that the abnormal result was caused by having sex the night before my Pap, and when I went back for a repeat everything was fine. Hopefully this is the case for you!

I got another pap smear about a week ago because the itching and swelling is like UNBEARABLE lately and my dr. prescribed me Flagyl again and it's not helping. The office called me today saying that there was no sign of yeast but a few abnormal cells were found and to come back in 6 months..I've looked at a few websites & everything I've read points to HPV. What else could this be? Won't 6 months worsen my conditon?? Why did she prescribe me Flagyl again???

Hi, i just recently was told i have HPV. I got a pap smear and i was told it was normal...but, they told me i tested positive for HPV... Would this mean i have genial warts? I also seem to get alot of yeast infections....would this be from the virus?

DO U STILL THINK THAT IT COULD B A YEAST INFECTION AND BY ME DOING A PAP SMEAR WOULDNT THE DOCTOR WOULD HAVE CAUGHT THAT IT WAS AN YEAST INFECTION?

can a prostate infection or prostatis (UTI) cause an abnormal pap smear for a women?
