COLPOSCOPY
At Life's Cycle, we prioritize preventive healthcare, including colposcopy for cervical cancer screening. If you receive abnormal Pap smear results, don't panic – it's common and doesn't always indicate cancer. External factors like your menstrual cycle can affect results, so follow-up tests are often recommended. If needed, we may suggest a colposcopy for further evaluation. Trust us to provide the best care for your health.

HERE’S WHAT WE CAN DO
Preparation + Positioning
Much like a pap smear, you will lie on an examination table, placing your feet in stirrups. This positioning provides clear access to the cervix for the colposcope.
Examination with the Colposcope
The healthcare provider then positions the colposcope, a device with magnifying lenses, near the vaginal opening but does not insert it. A mild vinegar solution might be applied to the cervix, which helps highlight abnormal cells by turning them white. The colposcope allows the provider to examine the area, identifying anything unusual or suspicious.
Biopsy (if required)
If the healthcare provider observes any abnormal areas, a small tissue sample (biopsy) may be taken from the area for further examination in a lab.
