What is Colposcopy? Who Performs Colposcopy?

When do we need to perform a colposcopy? The answer to the question is exactly why we perform cervical cancer screening. In cases where abnormal cells are observed in the smear test or if there is a positive HPV test, we perform a more advanced examination and diagnosis method, colposcopy, that is, by looking at the cervix with a magnifying glass, and take biopsies from suspicious areas. Of course, not just the cervix. By also looking at the female genital skin areas, which we call the vagina and vulva, by colposcopy, that is, by looking at them with a magnifying glass, and taking biopsies from suspicious areas, we can detect and treat early-stage cancer or pre-cancerous tissues in advance.
