Gynecologic cytology

Gynecologic cytology is a medical testing method that examines cells collected from the female reproductive tract, mainly using a Pap smear. This test helps detect abnormal, precancerous, or cancerous cells in areas like the cervix. By analyzing these cells under a microscope, healthcare providers can identify changes early, allowing for timely intervention and better health outcomes. It's a routine screening tool that plays a crucial role in preventing cervical cancer and monitoring overall gynecologic health.
