Suffering From HPV, Low Grade Cell Changes, Green Discharge During Periods. Serious Symptoms?

I am a 23 yr old female. I was diagnosed with HPV and have low grade cell changes. I have not done a colposcopy yet, although my doctor did advise it, in hopes that it would go away on its own by taking lots of vitamins and eating healthier. I am on my period and noticed the sanitary napkin was green! I am freaking out! Could this have something to do with the hpv? Is it serious to have green discharge?

hi there
am dr.surendiran
nice to meet you here in HCMagic
The majority of HPV infections are generally harmless, though they can be embarrassing. However, the HPV infections that can lead to cervical cancer and other types of cancers are a concern.
Genital warts created by HPV are small, cauliflower-shaped, or flat lesions. They occur on the genital areas including the vagina, cervix, vulva, penis, scrotum, and anus. They are usually painless but they can bleed, itch, or have some discharge.
Precancerous lesions or cervical dysplasia are abnormal cells in the cervix. These are painless and can only be detected with a Pap smear.
just have an proper vaginal hygiene,greenish discharge is due to vaginal infections,do an vaginal swab to find the infective agent
