This is my second time on here. I wnat to ask something. I have an appointment at the doctors in the morning?

Question

and want to get a blood test to check my hormone level. I am 38, and my last period was one drop of blood and that was it .. My mother went thorugh menopuse at 34. I got my period a couple of months ago if not longer. Before that I did not have a period for 3 months. Now since I also had CIN2(abnormal pap smear) diagnosed in 2000 I have had pap smears regulary, uo until one and a half years ago. I do not to want to get it done anymore I hate them.What are the chances of abnormal cells returning if you have alreay had them in the past? Can things change in 1 and a half years> I hope not. I get a bit of discharge, but that one drop of blood a few months ago was more than likely spotting as my periods almost over for good. Yippe. Anyway I want to ask is my risk of developing cervical cancer higher now since I have already had CIN2 in the past. As I said I do nto want to go and get anymore pap smears becasue a part of me tells me there is not need to get it done. Any helpful hints people

Answer 1

I would still get checked regularly, this is the only way to make sure your staying healthy. It does sound like you're going through menopause.

Answer 2

You will always be at a higher risk of cervical abnormalities than someone who has never been diagnosed. I would urge you to get ANNUAL checkups, if for no other reason than because wishing it won't happen is NOT going to keep illness at bay.

I was diagnosed almost 11 years ago with cervical cancer with absolutely NO previous symptoms or problems. I have had two incidents since treatment that have required aggressive preventive care.
I get a pap smear every 6 months faithfully. I don't like them either, but I would rather go through 10 minutes of discomfort than another 6 months of abject agony and living hell.
Trust me...you NEED to take care of yourself - no one else is going to do it for you!
