would you act differently with LGSIL without high ris HPV vs with HR HPV. LGSIL without HR HPV does not warrant further evaluation IMHO

Under 30 - only check HPV -IF- it is ASCUS - otherwise you don't want to know whether it is there or not - it should not change any management because of 1. the hif=gh prevalence rate and 2. the fact that the great majoprity of those will clear it

You only need to know if the cytology is normal or abnormal.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
