About Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Test in Greenfield
HPV testing looks for the virus itself rather than the changes it may cause.
The test identifies DNA from high-risk HPV types, which are the strains most strongly linked to cervical cell abnormalities. It is often performed alongside a Pap test, though the two examine different things: a Pap test looks at cells, while an HPV test looks for the virus.
Samples are collected from the cervix using a swab or brush during a pelvic exam, similar to the collection method for a Pap test. The sample is then sent to a laboratory for analysis.
Results are generally reported within a few business days. A positive result indicates the presence of high-risk HPV, but it does not mean cancer is present; many infections clear on their own. Follow the lab's instructions for any preparation before collection.
