Cervical cancer.
I’m pretty sure I have HPV. As I’ve had to get a couple warts removed on my genitalia, I’ve had it for about a year. But I think I have cervical cancer as I read some strains of HPV cause cancer. Not sure though, as I can’t get a Pap smear because I’m not 21, I’m only 2 months shy of 21. I was told no from a doctor. But what I want to know is cervical cancer fast spreading? And is it likely I have it? I guess I’m just a big worry to myself.. thanks.

The presence of hpv( high risk types) confers high risk of developing malignancy and needs regular surveillance. I wonder if you have got co testing done yet!
