处女是否需要做巴氏涂片检查?

回答 Tatnai Burnett, M.D.

是。无论是否有性病史,医生都建议定期进行宫颈癌筛查。宫颈癌筛查相关检查包括巴氏涂片检查和 HPV 检查。医生可帮助您了解哪种检查最适合您。

巴氏涂片检查的目的是从宫颈采集细胞。宫颈位于子宫下端。在实验室分析巴氏涂片检查过程中采集的细胞,确认其是否具有癌性,或者是否存在可能表明宫颈癌风险增加的变化。

HPV 检查以类似方法进行,但分析从宫颈采集的细胞是为了确认是否存在常见的性传播感染,即人乳头状瘤病毒(HPV)。HPV 被认为是大多数宫颈癌的病因。如果从未进行过任何类型的性交,则不太可能感染 HPV,但万事无绝对,因为其他类型的性接触也能够传播 HPV
