Can I have HPV without noticing any symptoms?

Yes, in fact, it is one of the most frequent situations. Many women have no discomfort or visible changes, and the infection is detected at a check-up or through a test prescribed by their gynecologist.

Does a positive HPV result mean I'm going to have a serious problem?

No. A positive result indicates the presence of the virus, but does not allow conclusions to be drawn on its own. The important thing is that the result is evaluated together with other data, such as cytology, age and history, to decide whether only monitoring is needed or whether closer follow-up is appropriate.

What is the difference between cytology and the human papilloma test?

Cytology studies if there are changes in the cells of the cervix. The HPV test detects the presence of the virus. They are different and complementary tests, and their indication depends on the clinical situation of each patient.

How often should I have a gynecological check-up?

There is no single guideline valid for all women. The frequency may vary according to age, history and previous results. It is best to follow the guidelines indicated by your gynecologist and not let years go by without a checkup if you do not have a defined control.

When to make an appointment with a gynecologist in Las Palmas or Telde for this reason?

It is a good idea to make an appointment if it has been a while since you last had a check-up, if you have doubts about previous results, if you want information about screening tests or if you are simply looking to resume your gynecological check-ups with a clear, preventive approach.
