Thanks for your question on HCM.
The risk factor for you are
1. Age. Post menopausal age. (65)
2. HPVpositivity. HPV is the viral infection causing cervical carcinoma.
3.positive Family history of cancer .
4. Most important. Presence of precancerous cells on PAP smear.
So you are having cervical cancer.
For staging biopsy and CT scan of abdomen is needed.
So better to consult gynecologist and discuss future treatment options. You may require surgical removal of uterus.
