Hi, my pap smear last year showed LSIL with HPV associated changes. My gynecologist ordered an HPV DNA screen for me and it came out negative for the following HPV strains: 16, 18, 33, 35, 39, 45, 51,52,56, 58, 59, 66, and 68. The following pap smear 3 months later showed inflammatory changes with parakeratosis and squamous cell metaplasia. Now 6 months later I underwent another pap and am waiting for the results to come out. I'm still worried. Does this mean I have a benign HPV and it is yet to clear out? Before the LSIL, I never had a "normal" pap, it was always inflammatory with changes later such as parakeratosis. Any advice at this point would be appreciated.
