Patient: Description of condition (onset, main symptoms, hospital visited, etc.): Hello, I want to have a baby now, I had a test at our hospital on June 29, TCT was mild inflammation and HPV was positive. Now I have no symptoms, can I have one in the near future? I had a positive HPV three years ago and have been negative for the past two years. Hospital Obstetrics and Gynecology: If the current infection type is the same as before, it is a re-infection; if not, it is a recent infection; you can further test the HPV viral load. In principle, TCT is not a problem and simple HPV infection does not affect the problem of pregnancy, but TCT and HPV monitoring is needed during pregnancy. Patient: Thank you for your reply, I did not have HPV typing and I don’t understand HPV load, what is the difference between re-infection and new infection? What does it mean to monitor TCT and HPV during pregnancy? Hospital Obstetrics and Gynecology: TCT and HPV are both screening items for cervical cancer because HPV is closely related to cervical cancer, while TCT is a cytological examination of the exfoliated cervix, which helps to detect abnormal cells at an early stage. The type of infection is not the same.
