Finding the Support You Need
It can be scary when you find out your Pap test is abnormal. Many
women have found it helpful to:
- Ask friends or loved ones for support. They can go to the
health care provider's office with you while you are learning
about choices in testing and treatment.
- Ask your health care provider to:
- Help you understand medical terms that are confusing
- Tell you how other people have handled the types of
feelings that you are having
- Contact the organizations listed in the Resource section.

"I owed it to myself
and my family to
find out if anything
was wrong. And
once I had the facts,
it was easy to take
the next step."
