What do the results mean?
For the majority of women, the results of a smear test will show that everything is normal and healthy. In some cases however, there may be some abnormal changes in the cervix which need to be monitored. You may be referred to a specialist for further treatment. In the case of cell abnormalities, it is not uncommon for the cells to return back to normal without further intervention. However in more serious cases the cells may need to be treated in order to prevent them from becoming cancerous.
