Hpv

I am 23 yrs old I have never had a child however last year I was told that my Pap came in positive for HPV. That really scared me and worried because there is a line of cancer in my family however there are all different kinds. I know that HPV can lead to cervical cancer. I went back 4months later to redo a pap to and once again came back positive with hpv and the abnormal cells. This week i went to the obgyn that my doctor reffered me to and in 3 wks going back for a colposcopy. I am very scared and very afraid that it can possibly turn into a cancer. does anyone have any words of advice.

It is very scary when you are so young to be thinking about cancer (i am 30).  but do not stress about it.   HPV is very , very common and in most cases it goes away on its own and turns out not to be cancer.
