Colposcopy

Advanced Cervical Examination & Early Detection

Colposcopy is a specialized procedure used to closely examine the cervix, vagina, and vulva for abnormal or precancerous changes. It is commonly recommended after an abnormal Pap smear or positive HPV test. The procedure is quick, safe, and helps in early detection and prevention of cervical cancer through timely diagnosis and treatment.

What is Colposcopy?

Colposcopy is a specialized diagnostic procedure used to closely examine the cervix, vagina, and vulva for abnormal or precancerous changes. It is usually recommended after an abnormal Pap smear or positive HPV test.

At our centre, colposcopy is performed with precision, care, and patient comfort in mind.

Why is Colposcopy Done?

Dr. Richi Khandelwal recommends colposcopy for:

  • Abnormal Pap smear results
  • HPV (Human Papillomavirus) infection
  • Persistent vaginal discharge
  • Unexplained bleeding after intercourse
  • Suspicious cervical lesions
  • Follow-up of previously treated cervical abnormalities

Early detection plays a critical role in preventing cervical cancer.

How the Procedure is Performed

  • The procedure is done in the OPD setting.
  • A special magnifying device called a colposcope is used.
  • A mild solution is applied to highlight abnormal cells.
  • If required, a small biopsy may be taken for further evaluation.

The procedure is generally painless and takes about 10–20 minutes.
