Skip to content At Women’s Health Group Chicago, we understand that your health is a top priority. This is why we highly recommend routine cervical screenings as an essential part of every woman’s healthcare regimen. These simple, painless tests can identify abnormal cells in the cervix long before they develop into cancer, providing you with the benefit of early detection and treatment to ensure your ongoing wellbeing.
The Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) is a common yet significant health concern for many women in Woodlawn. We are dedicated to safeguarding your health at Womens Health Group Chicago through our HPV testing and vaccination services. Taking these preventative measures not only helps guard against several strains of HPV but also significantly reduces the risk of cervical cancer associated with this viral infection.
In instances where pap smear results indicate abnormalities, colposcopy may be recommended for further investigation. At Women’s Health Group Chicago, we provide expert care to our patients during this diagnostic procedure ensuring their comfort throughout while obtaining precise results that inform accurate diagnosis—the first step in devising an effective course of treatment.
Utilizing advanced medical technology such as cryotherapy aids us greatly in maintaining the excellent standard of care we’re known for at Women’s Health Group Chicago. Cryotherapy involves freezing abnormal cervical tissue using a very cold substance—usually liquid nitrogen—to destroy it completely thus ridding you completely or substantially minimising any precancerous conditions detected by earlier screenings.

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.
