Abstract

Introduction: Reports on the effects of CONTRACEPTIVE METHOD on pathologic evidence provided by PAP SMEAR TEST have been varied. A few studies have reported that the type of contraception pills or devices is the predisposing risk factor for precancerous changes in cervix. The aim of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of abnormal findings in PAP SMEAR TESTs which were related to CONTRACEPTIVE METHODs and devices, in women in Isfahan.Methods: In a cross-sectional study, 500 women using one of the CONTRACEPTIVE METHODs for at least 1 year were selected. PAP SMEAR TEST was administered for all of the subjects. The results of PAP SMEAR TEST in relation to the CONTRACEPTIVE METHOD were analyzed.Results: Overall, 333 (66.6%) women had abnormal PAP SMEAR TEST results, of which 214 (42.8%) were nonspecific, and 119 (23.8%) were specific findings. There was no significant difference between the relative prevalence of various PATHOLOGIC FINDINGS in PAP SMEAR TEST, as relates to the method of contraception.Discussion: Our results demonstrated that there is no relationship between the method of contraception and cytological abnormalities observed in PAP SMEAR TEST. In view of other studies, other factors such as human papilloma virus, chlamydia trachomatis, HIV infection, cigarette smoking and age should be considered as predisposing factors for precancerous changes of cervix. The CONTRACEPTIVE METHOD and devices probably have no role in pathologic effects observed in PAP SMEAR TEST.
