no you don't have cancer !!!! Don't worry !!!
95% of women have high risk HPV. high risk just means that there is the possibility of getting cervical cancer in the wayyyyy future IF you don't get regular pap checkups. Your next step is to get a colposcope (takes 5 minutes and is super easy) so that your GYN can look around your cervix to make sure you don't have any abnormal tissue. Even if you have abnormal tissue, it's most likely not cancer. They would either be benign(not cancer and not pre cancerous) like mine were,
sin 1, sin 2 or sin 3. most womens results are benign or sin 1. neither of those require treatment. If you have sin 2 or sin 3 then all they have to do is remove the abnormal cells from your cervix.
It's a lot of information, I drove myself insane researching this when I found out I had hpv high risk but you'll soon see that almost every woman has it. I found out most of my friends have it. It's crazy ! If you want to talk or have any more questions feel free to [contact] me :) My name is Brittany.
