Cervical cancer question. pre cancerous cells?


i have pre cancerous cells on my cervix i have had for about 10 years or so. i go to the doctor every 4-6 months to be checked. i have had 6 colposcopies and multiple biopsies every time he does a colposcopy but evertime i get my test results, he just says to come back in 4-6 months and i have to go through it again unless i want to get a hysterectomy. is this normal? he says freezing them is a waste of time because 80% of the time it comes back and that i have to wait until it turns into cancer before we can do anything. is that normal?

I had the same until last year I finaly had a hysterectomy. I was ready for it though .I have 4 kids. I want to let you know , it is normal but you could have the hysterectomy and be worry free. If you already have kids it may be time to consider it. Freezing also leaves a nasty odor because the cells do thaw out and cause drainage. Good Luck

Consider yourself one of the lucky ones.

After 10 years, precancerous cells that haven't gone away still haven't turned cancerous, and you have a Dr that cares enough to keep monitoring.

You have been given the alternative - a hysterectomy.

Good luck, and may you be having regular pap smears for many years without these precarious cells turning cancerous.
