Smoking will make a difference... this a progresser in having a poor immune system therefore this may have an effect on your HPV. This is a person choice that you need to make, If you do continue to smoke I highly suggest taking vitamins, working out and eatting health to make up for smoking. Those other things will at least help your immune system.
I got my biopsy results back and they show Low Grade/CIN 1 and HPV positive. My doctor believes he burned at least 70% of the abnormal cells. I am not scheduled to have a repeat pap every three months to see if there are any regressions or progressions. Since I received my results, I have made a decision to quit smoking. I am having a really hard time doing this and am wondering if it would make much of a difference in having these cells regress.
I read so many different things on line as to the severity of LSIL/CIN 1 and am wondering if anyone has any insight as to what my chances for regression are. Also, would smoking make much of a difference?
Yes the abnormal cells can change your pap in a 6 month period, HPV is a complex STD. I don't think you should be too worried about this you caught it early in the infection and so if you have the high risk you can have it treated and not worry about the long term effects as much... If you have a low risk wart causing HPV this is not too much to worry about, you can have HPV and not even know it as symptoms/warts don't always present themselfs and even when they do they are always noticable... Of course that is different for every person and they do have prescribed creams and freezing removal treatment.
I think you will be fine and if you have additional questions feel free to ask. =)
