TCT HPV

Experts suggest that everyone should have a regular physical examination once a year so that they can deal with their physical condition in a timely manner. For women, every routine physical examination is to check TCT and HPV, but they don't know what the difference is between the two. For our own physical and mental health, we still need to master more relevant professional knowledge. Next, let’s look at the difference between TCT and HPV.

Uterine TCT regular examination and HPV test are two different tests in cervical cancer screening! The TCT test is to re-examine the cells taken from the cervix and endocervical canal, using a liquid-based cytology detection network for detection and cytological classification and diagnosis. It is currently one of the most advanced cervical cancer cell cytology examination technologies in the world! HPV testing is to take diseased tissue and local tissue mucus and secretions for HPV-DNA testing to determine whether human papillomavirus is infected! Human papillomavirus infection (HPV) is widely present in nature. Humans are the only host, and the yellow race is a susceptible group! If high-risk HPV infection continues, it will eventually cause cervical cancer, and the cervical TCT test is to screen whether the cervix has epithelial cell disease or malignancy!

Therefore, we recommend that women with a history of sexual intercourse should undergo cervical TCT and HPV testing once a year! Eliminate cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and malignancy. If it is a simple HPV infection, no special treatment is needed. 70-90% of HPV infections can be defeated and turned negative through self-immunity! If there are abnormal changes in the cervix, it is recommended to further perform a cervical biopsy under colposcopy, and then choose an appropriate treatment plan based on the examination results! Usually, you should pay attention to the hygiene of your sexual life, exercise, enhance your immunity, and have regular follow-up visits for cervical cancer examinations!

The above is a detailed introduction to the differences between TCT and HPV. In short, these two tests are actually different tests. TCT is mainly used to test cervical cancer, while HPV is used to test human papillomavirus infection. Therefore, these two tests are very necessary. I hope this article can help everyone!
