Best time to get tested for HPV

The best time for HPV test is recommended 3-5 days after menstruation, because the vaginal environment is better just after menstruation, and the thickness of the endometrium is more suitable, and the cervical discharge is less, so there is the least interference from outside, and the accuracy of taking the discharge for the test is the highest. As long as women who have normal sex life need to have cervical HPV test once a year, because there is a close relationship between virus infection and the incidence of cervical cancer. It is recommended to do the test after menstruation, and the test can be done in the morning or afternoon, depending on the menstrual cycle. Before the cervical HPV test, you should not have intercourse or use drugs for 2-3 days before the test, otherwise the drug residue and sperm may affect the test result.
