Top 1 Colposcopist in Delhi

What is a Colposcopist?

A colposcopist is a trained specialist who uses a colposcope to examine the cervix, vagina, and vulva for signs of disease or cancer. 

A colposcopy is a procedure that uses a special microscope called a colposcope to examine the cervix and vagina. The colposcope magnifies the image many times, allowing the healthcare provider to see the tissues on the cervix and vaginal walls more clearly. 

A colposcopy can take about 5 to 10 minutes and doesn't require any restrictions following the examination. It doesn't require a stay in the hospital or any use of anesthesia, freezing, or pain medication. 

A colposcopy may be recommended if you've had an abnormal Pap test or a positive HPV test.
