Women need to register with a gynecologist for the HPV test, however, there are certain requirements for the HPV test, which require no intercourse for 3 days, no vaginal medication for 3 days, and no vaginal scrubbing for 3 days to avoid affecting the HPV test results. Because the HPV test involves brushing the fluid-based cells of the cervical canal, intercourse and scrubbing can affect the results. There may be a small amount of bleeding after the test, and the bleeding will end within 3 days. You can take a little pad during the test to avoid contaminating your underwear. You should not have intercourse within 1 week after the test, and you can treat the test results accordingly.
