Colposcopy & Cervical Biopsy in Delhi
Colposcopy and cervical biopsy are screening tests that are performed for the close examination of the cervix. Under this procedure, doctors used a magnifying lens to understand and identify the changes occurring in the woman’s cervix, which is located at the inner end of the vagina. It is used to check for precancerous changes or cancerous cells. If you have an abnormal Pap smear result, your doctor will recommend that you undergo a colposcopy to check whether the cells can turn cancerous or not.
A Pap test is a routine examination that is done to check the changes in the cervix, whereas colposcopy is done when the Pap or HPV test comes back abnormal.
What Is Colposcopy?
Colposcopy is a diagnostic test used to check for the presence of abnormal tissues in the cervix, vulva, and vagina. This procedure includes a specialised tool to provide a clear view of the organs. If there are any unusual findings, your healthcare provider will take a small piece of tissue to check whether it could turn into cancer or not.
When Is Colposcopy Done?
A gynaecologist will recommend colposcopy when:
- Pap smear test comes back abnormal
- Having a positive result of HPV
- You experience unusual symptoms such as bleeding during sex or pain.
- Noticed an abnormal tissue in the cervix, vulva or vagina during a pelvic examination
How To Prepare For A Colposcopy?
Preparation for colposcopy involves several steps and tips to make the procedure easier and achieve the desired results.
The first step involves scheduling a colposcopy with your gynaecologist when you are not menstruating. Another thing is that you have to avoid douching or engaging in any sexual activity for 24 to 48 hours before the test. Before the colposcopy, ensure you bring a sanitary pad in case light bleeding occurs after the procedure, and wear comfortable clothing. During the preparation, your gynaecologist will brief you about the process and may also recommend taking over-the-counter pain relievers on the day of the procedure.

What Happens During Colposcopy?
A colposcopy is a minimally invasive procedure that is used to closely examine your cervix, vulva and vagina for any abnormal cells. This procedure usually takes only 15 to 30 minutes to complete.
Under this, you will be asked to lie on the examination table with your feet placed in stirrups, the same as for a Pap smear. After this, your gynaecologist places a medical instrument known as a speculum in the vagina to keep it open from the sides. Following this, your doctor places a colposcope outside the vaginal canal to have a magnified view of the area. A mild acetic acid solution may be applied to highlight the abnormal cells. If the solution highlights any suspicious areas, your healthcare provider may perform a biopsy to remove the tissue for further examination in the laboratory. After the procedure, you may experience light bleeding or spotting, which can go away after some time. If it persists, contact your gynaecologist right away.
