Since the hospitals where cervical cancer screening is performed differ, the time to get the results may vary, from about a week for some hospitals to about half a month for others. If a woman has cervical cancer screening in a large tertiary hospital, the result time is usually earlier, usually within a week, because the result of cervical cancer screening in a tertiary hospital can be directly examined and reported in the laboratory department of the hospital without sending it to other hospitals for examination. If a woman has her cervical cancer screening in a secondary hospital, the specimen is often sent to other higher level hospitals for examination and report, so the time to get the result of cervical cancer screening will be relatively delayed, often about half a month. However, if there is any abnormality in the cervical cancer screening, the patient will be informed by phone in advance so that colposcopy or biopsy can be performed as soon as possible to further confirm the diagnosis, and no matter where the cervical cancer screening is done, the examination method is the same, which is to use a small brush of cervical TCT to take cells locally from the cervix. It is also recommended that intercourse be prohibited three days before and three days after the test to avoid affecting the test results or causing vaginal inflammation.
