My pap smear came back abnormal and im 3 months pregnant, honestly got scared seeing the report. Could it just be because of pregnancy hormones or something? Plan to ask my doc but wanted to hear if others had this too.
I know how scary that word abnormal sounds, I panicked when I saw it too. But please dont jump to the worst. My doctor calmly explained the next step and it turned out fine. Talk to her before stressing.
Dont waste energy googling worst case scenarios honestly. Just book a proper appointment, take the report and let the doctor explain. Usually they recommend a repeat test, simple.
My gynac told me pregnancy hormones can sometimes make the cells look a bit different on a pap smear, so an abnormal result doesnt always mean something serious. She said usually they just repeat it later or after delivery. Best to discuss your exact report with her.
