Skip to content A regular check-up—particularly a Routine Cervical Screening—is women’s first line of defense against cervical diseases. At Womens Health Group Chicago, we strongly advocate for cancer prevention, and one vital way to achieve that is through routine screenings. Our medical staff employs the latest methods and technological advances in performing thorough, accurate tests to catch early warning signs or abnormalities. Every procedure is handled with utmost care, ensuring each patient’s comfort during the process.
The risk of encountering HPV (Human Papillomavirus) increases with age; hence conducting an HPV test is imperative for every woman’s health journey. Womens Health Group Chicago offers reliable HPV testing services that specialize in identifying strains which might cause cancers like cervical cancer if left unchecked. We also provide vaccinations proven effective in preventing HPV infections before they occur: it’s about safeguarding not just your present health but your future wellbeing too.
The detailed examination technique referred to as Colposcopy allows our experts at Womens Health Group Chicago to zoom into areas on the cervix suspected of abnormality detected from prior screenings such as Pap Smear results or HPV tests. It gives us a chance to uncover further evidence while minimizing discomforts often associated with extensive invasive procedures—a balance between efficiency and consideration we continuously strive to maintain.
Cryotherapy has shown significant success rates in treating numerous conditions including precancerous cervical cells identified during colposcopy sessions. This treatment method involves freezing off affected tissues using cold gas passed through a metal probe applied directly onto problem spots—meticulous yet safe approach distinguishes Cryotherapy among others treatments at Womens Health Group Chicago.
Another alternative when dealing with abnormal cell growth is Loop Electrosurgical Excision Procedure (LEEP). Womens Health Group Chicago employs this with high precision and a careful manner, making it one of the effective ways to remove abnormal tissues from the cervix. Its benefit does not stop there as collected samples during LEEP can further help in diagnosing underlying conditions—serving both treatment and diagnostic purposes.
A crucial part of any medical operation is following up on results and our team at Womens Health Group Chicago understands that more than anyone else. We provide systematic follow-up consultations especially in response to abnormal test results. This after-care service isn’t just about interpreting those figures you received—it’s about discussing your possible next steps, easing worries or fears, and carving out an informed path towards better health together in the midst of Indian Head Park’s bustling setup.

A Pap smear is important because it can help detect cervical cancer early, when it is most treatable. Cervical cancer is a slow-growing cancer, so regular Pap smears can help catch it before it spreads to other parts of the body.
The American Cancer Society recommends that women start getting Pap smears at age 21, or sooner if they are sexually active. Women aged 21-29 should get a Pap smear every 3 years. Women aged 30-65 should get a Pap smear and HPV test every 5 years. Women who have certain risk factors, such as HIV or a history of cervical cancer, may need to get Pap smears more often.
During a Pap smear, your doctor will insert a speculum into your vagina to hold the walls open. They will then use a small brush or spatula to collect cells from the cervix. The cells are then placed on a slide and sent to a laboratory for testing.
A Pap smear result is considered normal if no abnormal cells are found. If abnormal cells are found, your doctor may recommend further testing, such as an HPV test or colposcopy.
Human papillomavirus (HPV) is a common virus that can cause abnormal cell changes on the cervix. Most people who are infected with HPV clear the virus on their own, but some people develop persistent HPV infections. Persistent HPV infections can lead to cervical cancer.
An HPV test is a screening test that detects the presence of HPV in the cervix. HPV tests are often done in conjunction with Pap smears, but they can also be done on their own.
A colposcopy is a procedure that allows your doctor to examine the cervix and vagina more closely. During a colposcopy, your doctor will use a special microscope to magnify the cervix and vagina. They may also take a biopsy (small sample of tissue) to test for abnormal cells.
The Women’s Health Group stands as a testament to over 30 years of excellence, dedication, and innovation.
