Does Endometriosis Lead To Cervical Cancer?
My name is Tera. I am 32 years old and have 4 children. I have had 8 miscarriages. I was just diagnosed with endometriosis and it is 16 cm thick. I also have e6/e7 hpv and a family history of cervical cancer. I had a biopsy done on the endometriosis and have another appointment for the biopsy on the cervix in 2 weeks? Does this put me at higher risk for cancer?

Hello,
Thank you for trusting HealthcareMagic for your health concern
Endometriosis does not put you at higher risk for cervical cancer. However, the HPV e6/e7 infection increases the risk for cervical.cancer. So please be advised to undergo cervical biopsy as scheduled.
