A colposcopy is an examination to check whether there are abnormal cells on your cervix, and if so, how serious they are. This is usually a follow-up to your screening test. Colposcopy usually takes place in an outpatient hospital clinic. A specialist will take a close look at your cervix using a magnifying lens with a light, known as a colposcope. 

We have some useful information leaflets available below that will inform you about your colposcopy, your appointment and any possible procedures involved.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the Colposcopy Secretary, who will be able to help you with your enquiry or arrange for somebody to call you back.

Your questions answered

Sally Abbott, Lead Colposcopist, has put together a short video that explains more about the examination and what to expect when you attend your appointment.
