Some people claim at-home health tests are more convenient but would you give yourself at an an-home cervical test? The audience seems to agree, "No!"

OB/GYN Dr. Nita Landry explains this test is looking for high-risk HPV types, those most strongly associated with cervical cancer. The kit cost about one hundred dollars and it includes a swab which you put in your vagina to get a sample. Users then send the sample to the lab and they will email you within five days the results.

Dr. Nita doesn't love this idea because at a gynecological visit more is done than just checking for cervical cancer. The doctor will first do a Pap smear and send it to a lab to check for abnormalities. Then, they will look for either a positive or negative high-risk HPV. She says there are a lot of studies saying what to do if a woman has an abnormal Pap plus or minus HPV, but not a lot of studies on what to do with just the HPV results alone. There are some guidelines but it hasn't been well studied.

Dr. Nita adds she doesn't want this test to have people stressed when some HPV will resolve on its own within 8-14 months. She also says the best collection method hasn't been determined and it may not be the swab this kit includes.

The Doctors comment that this test is pretty expensive and if you have health insurance, you should be able to get your annual gynecological exam covered. Also, if you take a test, it's important to know beforehand what you plan to do about the results.
