After the cervical TCT, the doctor will recommend further colposcopy and cervical biopsy for women with problems based on the results of the TCT report. Cervical biopsy is the most reliable and indispensable tool to confirm the diagnosis of cervical cancer and precancerous cervical lesions. A cervical biopsy involves removing a portion of tissue from the cervix for pathological diagnosis. Usually, during colposcopy, the doctor will select the 3, 6, 9 and 12 points of the squamous-columnar junction of the cervix and take a 4-point biopsy with a biopsy forceps, or take a biopsy from the suspected area for pathological examination. The tissue taken should have both epithelial and mesenchymal tissues. Some women may think that it is very painful to remove the tissue, but generally speaking, women with cervical biopsy do not experience significant pain, there will be a little discomfort, which is tolerable. The biopsy site may bleed and the doctor will take medication to stop the bleeding or gauze to compress it. Therefore, do not have intercourse, do not apply vaginal medication or vaginal douching, and do not go swimming, hot springs or sitz baths for 2 weeks after the procedure. In short, there is no need to be afraid of this mandatory test. The cervix is almost painless, so there is no need for anesthesia at all.
