thanks for sending the question.

The Pap smear revealed some changes in the skin cells which are present on the surface of the cervix. Most likely your doctor will recommend a repeat Pap smear at some point within the next 6 to 12 months.

The background of polymorphonuclear sells means that there are some white blood cells present in the area.

please discuss these results with your doctor for for the recommendations.

Brief Answer:
Follow up.

Detailed Answer:
you will need to have a repeat Pap smear done within the next 3 to 6 months. If you do not have a good doctor I suggest you ask friends to provide you with a referral to a good local physician. You need to have a repeat test to make sure there are no abnormal or precancerous cells in the cervix.

Thanks again for sending your question.

Sincerely,
