pap results related to endometriosis?

by caitlinxo, May 01, 2008 10:49PM
hi!
im just wondering if anyone knows how common it is to have endometriosis and have abnormal cells show up on pap test results ( i have low grade squamous intraepithelial cells ).....does anyone here have both of these??

i know it could be lots of other things, just wondering if these are related (my mom had endom. & abnormal cells too....  im only 18 but its possible,)
thanks for your time

Hi there! Sorry this comment is a month late.

I got a pap resulting in the DR finding endometriosis cells a week ago. I was to have a biopsy done, so they could see what was going on, but since there's a chance i could be prego, my biopsy has to wait.

What did your DR's tell you??
Good luck to you!
