I recently had my annual exam and My doctor just called me and said that I have "severly abnormal" cells on my cervix she already tested me for hpv and stds so what else could it be? It's really bothering me and i'd like to havae more information before i go in for further testing with an obgyn-

Hi Small :)
Even though the doctor tested you for HPV, chances are it is HPV that is causing your cervical abnormalities.
Hi smalltowngal2006, welcome!

There are many different kinds of HPV. Some few types cause genital warts and others don't. With further tests you doctor should be able to give you more specifics. At this point I don’t think it’s an absolute that your problem is the result of HPV but a very large percentage of dysplasia cases are caused by it.

small,
There are over 100 different strains of HPV.
