What Do Abnormal Pap Smear Results Mean?

Abnormal Pap smear results do not necessarily indicate cancer. They can signify various conditions such as:
Atypical Squamous Cells of Undetermined Significance (ASC-US): Slightly abnormal cells which may or may not be related to HPV.
Low-Grade Squamous Intraepithelial Lesion (LSIL): Mild abnormalities often linked to HPV infection.
High-Grade Squamous Intraepithelial Lesion (HSIL): More severe abnormalities that may lead to cancer if untreated.
Atypical Glandular Cells (AGC): Abnormal glandular cells which may indicate precancerous conditions or cancer.
