HPV yes or no? I am 28 and had my first abnormal Pap smear which led to the test showing hpv positive about a month ago. A couple days later the doctor performed the colposcopy to find no precancerous cells or abnormalities. They simply said ‘your normal.’ I went ahead and took a home hpv test that tested for the same strains to come back and read HPV was ‘non-detective.’ This was in a matter of 2 months time. Did the HPV exist at all?
